Sixteen hockey playing nations (some of them still trying to develop the nuances of the game) will compete for the chance to shake hands with Rene Fasel and claim Champion of the World status from the IIHF for the next 365 days.

Below we'll follow the path of the tournament from the opening day results to the final championship.
