The Czech Under-20 ice hockey team represents the Hockey Association of the Czech Republic in Hockey in the U20 junior power level in international competitions. She was world champion in her age group in 2000 and 2001 .

history

Tomáš Duba was involved in both Czech juniors' championship titles in 2000 and 2001 and was honored as the tournament's best goalkeeper in 2001.

The Czech U20 national ice hockey team emerged in 1993 from the Czechoslovakian U20 national ice hockey team , which existed until the country was split up. She first took part in the 1994 World Cup. 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 the Czech Republic has exclusively represented the U20 junior level at world championships.

The Czech U20 national team is one of the strongest in the world. She has played consistently first class since it was founded and is sixth in the all-time medal table following the U20 World Cup in 2016 with two world championship titles and a bronze medal. After no medals could be won in the first six independent World Cup participations, the Czechs won two world championships in a row in the championship fights in Sweden in 2000 and in Russia in 2001 . In 2005 , the third medal win followed with third place in the United States . If you add the successes of Czechoslovakia, in whose IIHF membership the Czech Association succeeded, then in addition to the two world championship titles, five silver and seven bronze medals can be recorded.
