Great Britain has been a member of the IFF since 1997 but the growth of the game has so far been slow in the UK. During the the three WFC they have participated in they have placed themselves in the middle of the B-division, not making it to the semifinal. Will most likely have to fight USA and Japan to stay out of the last place in the group to avoid playing to stay in the B-division. So far Great Britain has been a step ahead of those countries - are they still?
