Svenska Ishockeyförbundet is the organization recognized by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) as the national governing body for the sport of ice hockey in Sweden. Sweden became a member of the IIHF on March 23, 1912.

Does Svenska Ishockeyförbundet also represent inline roller hockey?
The English and Swedish language Wikipedia articles about the federation say Svenska Ishockeyförbundet is also responsible for inline hockey, but we wonder about this because the World Skate Federation recognizes the Swedish Inline Hockey Federation as the national governing body for the sport of inline hockey in Sweden. Perhaps the Swedish Ice Hockey federation is responsible for the inline hockey tournaments organized by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) and the Swedish Inline Hockey ederation is responsible for the inline hockey tournamenyts organized by the World Skate Federation and the former International Roller Sports Federation (FIRS)? We are looking for clarification.
