1999 World Championships - Espoo, Finland, March 8 - 14, 1999

The 1999 Pool A Women's World Championship was held in Espoo, Finland from March 8-14, 1999. Team Canada won the gold, Team USA the silver, and Team Finland the bronze.

The top five teams from the 1998 Winter Olympics qualified, along with the top three teams from the World Championship qualification tournament.

This is the first year for a Pool B World Championship. It will replace the European B Championships that have been held in the past. There was a detailed qualification process in 1998 to determine which teams would qualify for the Pool A and Pool B 1999 World Championships. There was a pre-qualification tournament, and then a qualification tournament.
