As part of the World Cup of Division I in Amiens , the independent Fédération française de hockey sur glace was founded on April 29, 2006 , which replaced the national ice sports association as the French representative in the IIHF and is now supposed to take care of the development of French ice hockey in a more targeted manner.
Since 2020, ice dancer Nathalie Péchalat has held the presidency of the association for the first time.
