The sport of Roller Hockey is governed by the Fédération Internationale de Roller Skating (FIRS) through its affiliate the Comité Internationale de Rink-Hockey (CIRH), which is recognised by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).

National Associations that support Roller Hockey affiliate to the CIRH and may enter national representative teams in the World and Regional Championships, such as the European Championship, that are conducted by associations such as the Comite European de Rink Hockey (CERH).

Domestic competitions may operate with some amendment to these rules, which will be published and distributed to participants from time to time by the organiser.
