History

edit

The AOFC was formed during the 2005 Women's World Floorball Championships, when the national associations of Australia, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, and Singapore, alongside the International Floorball Federation, decided to form a Confederation in conjunction with the 2004 Asia Pacific Floorball Championships.

Organization

edit

The AOFC, like other IFF member nations, has a central board consisting of a President, vice-president, Treasurer, Secretary General, and regional members.

The last AOFC general assembly was held in Singapore in 2018 during the 1st Women's AOFC Cup.
