history

The Russian U20 national ice hockey team emerged in 1992 from the U20 national ice hockey team of the Commonwealth of Independent States . She first took part in the world championship in 1993 and is thus also in the tradition of the Soviet junior selection . Up to and including 1998, the U20 national team covered the entire junior area at the World Championships, while the U19 national team took part in the Junior European Championships. Since the introduction of the U18 World Championships in 1999 , the U20 national team of Russia has exclusively represented the U20 junior level at world championships.

The Russian U20 national team is one of the strongest in the world and is ranked second in the all-time medal table following the 2016 U20 World Cup with four world championship titles as well as nine silver and seven bronze medals. Except for 1993, 2001, when seventh place was the worst result ever, in 2004 and 2010 the Russian team always reached the medal ranks. If one adds the successes of the Soviet Union and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), in whose IIHF membership the Russian Federation succeeded, then there are even 13 world championships, twelve silver and nine bronze medals.
