Birthplace Overview - artermis - 12-17-2018
Believe it or not, your birthplace choice is important when you create your player! In the SHL we have an international tournament every off-season (IIHF) for the senior players and a junior tournament (WJC) for the younger players. When you create your player you can actively choose to play for a Federation or if you are unsure about where you want to play, you can start off your career as an Unassigned player that can then transfer to a Federation later on. Even if you decide on a Federation when creating, you can use a transfer once in your career to move to another one.
The IIHF has currently 14 different Federations and the WJC combines some of the smaller ones to 10 teams playing in their tournament. An updated list of the current number of players and the respective position in each Federation can be found via this link.
The IIHF Federations and their current (as of 2022-04-23) number of active players are:
Austria - 19 players
Canada - 64 players
Czechia - 34 players
Finland - 40 players
Austria - 27 players
Great Britain - 32 players (includes Northern Ireland)
Ireland - 24 players
Japan - 38 players
Latvia - 23 players
Norway - 19 players
Russia - 21 players
Sweden - 42 players
Switzerland - 26 players
USA - 59 players
If you have any questions you are welcome to message the current IIHF Commissioner either with a site PM or through Discord at Canadice#0985.
