Uralikskaya Bandy-Federatsiya

The Uralikskaya Bandy-Federatsiya (Finn. Uralikan Jääpalloliitto) is the head governing body of all bandy-playing organisations within Uralica.

Notes on Nomenclature
"Русский Хоккей" (Russian hockey) was the name of the sport within the region before Uralica's founding, however, in Uralican Spoken Russian, it is rendered as "Банды," based on the English name of the sport. In Finnish, the sport is simply called "Jääpallo" (lit. "ice ball").
