The B division of the men's hockey World Cup is played in the transition between April and May. Two teams will play the 2025 Hockey World Cup in Stockholm and Herning, in the A division. Below we list the game schedule for the tournament.

In Bolzano, Italy, an important tournament is played in April and May, where Division 1A (colloquially B-VM) is decided on Italian soil. Italy is competing against South Korea, Slovenia, Hungary, Romania and Japan to be part of hockey's fine room for next year: the World Cup. As you know, the top division will be played in 2025 in Stockholm and the Danish Herning, where two teams will therefore go via this tournament. Two out of six teams reach promotion to the A division and the lowest placed team after five rounds plays in the third division (Division 1B) until the next national team season.
