The International Floorball Federation (IFF) is the umbrella organization of all national floorball organizations across the globe. It is headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland, and oversees all aspects of floorball sport worldwide. 157 countries are affiliated with the IFF after seven national federations were added at the 2008 IFF Congress in Rome.
In light of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the IFF suspended athletes from Russia and Belarus from competing at any International Floorball Federation events, and suspended all officials from these countries from officiating at any event sanctioned by the IFF, as well as from attending or participating in any IFF meetings, committees, and forums. In March 2023, the Russian Floorball Federation sent a letter addressing the ISF and urging them to reverse the decision and allow Russian athletes to compete in ISF events. The RFF's statement included claims that the war was actually started by Ukraine and that 'Russia defends peace'. In May 2023, the International Floorball Federation reinstated Russian and Belarusian athletes, shortly after a Russian missile attack forced the cancellation of a floorball event in Ukraine.
