EBNER GROUP becomes sleeve sponsor of the ÖEHV women’s national team at the Ice Hockey World Championship in Denmark

The Austrian Ice Hockey Association (ÖEHV) has secured EBNER GROUP as a new sponsor for the women’s national team. The Upper Austrian family-owned company will feature on the sleeves of the ÖEHV women’s jerseys as a sleeve sponsor at the top-division Ice Hockey World Championship. It will be the first-ever appearance in the highest World Championship category for Austria’s women’s national team – a historic milestone that EBNER GROUP will support as a partner.

With this sponsorship, EBNER GROUP is sending a clear signal in support of women’s ice hockey in Austria. For the ÖEHV, the partnership is an important building block in matching the women’s national team’s sporting progress with commercial development and providing the team with the best possible conditions for the tournament in Denmark.

ÖEHV Managing Director Alexander Helwig: “The promotion of our women’s national team to the top division is a historic success for Austrian ice hockey. In EBNER GROUP, we have gained a partner that believes in our team at precisely this special moment and provides visible support. On behalf of the entire association, I would like to thank them for this trust and I look forward to a successful partnership.”

“Team spirit, hard work and ambition”

Robert Ebner, CEO of EBNER GROUP: “We are proud to support the Austrian women’s national team at the World Championship in Denmark. The athletes deliver outstanding performances on the ice. They demonstrate what can be achieved through team spirit, hard work and ambition – standards that we also apply to our own technological solutions. We wish the entire team a successful tournament!”

Austria’s women’s national team, currently ranked 13th in the IIHF World Ranking, will face the reigning world champions and Olympic champions USA, Czechia, Switzerland and Germany in the group stage in Esbjerg. The ÖEHV and the global EBNER team are keeping their fingers crossed for the women’s national team at the tournament from 6 to 16 November 2026.
