The Macedonian Hockey Federation revealed the extended roster and the jersey for the 2016 IIHF Inline Hockey World Championship Qualification in Austria in June 2016.
Head Coach Jure Vnuk named the possible players for a one week camp in Jesenice/Slovenia before leaving with the final roster to Steindorf in Austria where the qualification will be played from June 21-25.
Team Manager Zorančo Griovski stated: "It will be the toughest qualification, the fifth in a row for Team Macedonia. Three major nations in inline hockey will play the qualification, they played in past years already World Championships: Austria, Latvia and Bulgaria. But we look forward, we got more experience every year and will work hard to make the miracle happen".
Macedonia will face in the group B Latvia and Serbia. In group A will appear: Austria, Israel and Turkey, in group C: Belgium, Bulgaria and Ireland. From all nine teams just one will promote to the World Championship in 2017 in Bratislava/Slovakia.
