Bandy at the 1952 Winter Olympics

Bandy was held as a demonstration sport at the 1952 Winter Olympics in Oslo.

Sweden, Norway and Finland participated with their best players and won one match each.

Sweden won the tournament thanks to the best goal difference, with Norway second and Finland third.

The three participating countries regularly played friendlies, but this was the first official international bandy tournament since 1913.

While agreements had previously been made to play friendlies against Sweden in the late 1940s, the plans did not come to fruition.
