History

The men's national team made their debut at the 2014 Southeast Asian Floorball Championships which was hosted in Singapore.[3][4] The Philippines lost all its four games at its first tournament against the national teams of Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore.[5]

The Philippines participated in the inaugural 2017 Asia Oceania Floorball Confederation Tournament in Bangkok[6] with no prior victory in an international floorball match.[2] Their 4–3 win over China on July 1, 2017 in the continental tournament became their first victory in an international floorball match.[7] They planned to enter the qualifiers of the 2018 World Floorball Championships,[7][2] but did not compete in the end.

The 2019 Asia Oceania Floorball Confederation Tournament was hosted at home in Biñan with the Philippines recruiting Filipinos with links to Sweden in a bid to improve their performance.[8] They finished bronze by beating South Korea in the third place play off.[9]

They entered the Asia-Oceania qualifiers for the 2020 World Floorball Championship but withdrew amidst concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic.[10]

gollark: Can you be more specific?
gollark: I mean, it would be easy for a single company to go around conning silly people, much harder for an entire very significant sector of the economy to have a massive conspiracy and keep it covered up.
gollark: > Tell me why exactly you think someone would go to the effort of grafting and setting up a real company, only to con people... because, conning people... gets you money?
gollark: burden of proof™
