Czechia and Switzerland will contend for the Women’s World Floorball Championship (WFC) final in 2025, marking a historic moment for Czechia as they reach the women’s final for the first time. Joining them is Switzerland, who clinched their spot by defeating Sweden 6-3 in the semi-finals.
Czechia produced a remarkable performance today, narrowly edging Finland 1-0 in a tightly fought matchup. The lone, decisive goal came from Czech captain Michaela Kubeckova, who had previously missed a penalty but redeemed herself with the game’s defining strike. The Czech squad celebrated a milestone achievement, celebrating their first ever appearance in the Women’s WFC final. The match also featured a new tournament attendance record, with 47,942 spectators in attendance.
Switzerland’s win over Sweden was more straightforward, finishing 6-3. The Swiss jumped ahead early, opening the scoring at three minutes courtesy of Seraina Fitzi. They led 4-1 after the first period and extended their advantage to 6-1 early in the third, with Anja Wyss adding another goal to restore momentum. Sweden pulled within two late in the game after a time-out, but could not mount a comeback. This victory marks Switzerland’s return to the final since hosting the WFC in 2019, and it sets up a historic moment where either Sweden or Finland would miss a medal—an outcome never before seen.
With both Finland and Sweden out of the final picture, they will now battle for bronze on Sunday, reshaping the podium narratives of this tournament.
