This year's World Cup will be held in Finland from December 5 to 13. Finland beat Sweden in Malmö to win the World Cup two years ago.

National team coach Thomas Brottman is now aiming to reverse the result after naming the Swedish squad. Eight players are making their World Cup debuts, including Filip Wramdemark of Pixbo and Hampus Nydenfeldt of Storvreta.

"I was given the task of rejuvenating the team, and I took it very seriously. I found these players, who I think are the gems that keep driving the game forward and play the kind of floorball I stand for and think Swedish floorball should stand for," Brottman says in a press release.
