Bandy Bond Nederlands is the governing body forbandy in theNetherlands and is controlling theNetherlands national bandy team.

Bandy was introduced to the Netherlands byPim Mulier in 1891^[1] and theNederlandsche Hockey en Bandy Bond, organisingfield hockey and bandy, was founded on 8 October 1898. In the 1920s and 1930s ice hockey increasingly became a tough competitor to bandy. The federation eventually let go of bandy and was renamed theNederlandse Hockey Bond in 1935.^[1] However, bandy was still played by som clubs during the 1950s and 1960s. Sometimes it was played asrink bandy. By 1971 the newNederlandse Bandy Federatie was founded. It became a member of theFederation of International Bandy in 1973 (or the International Bandy Federation, as it was known at the time), as the first non-founding member. The federation was merged intoSkate Bond Nederland some decades later but since 2012 the sport has its own national federation again, inBandy Bond Nederland.^[1]
