PRAGUE – SPORTS – The very best woodchopping and sawing athletes in the world are heading to Prague, as the Czech capital will be the host city for the 2019 STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® World Championship. The event will take place on November 1 and 2, at the iconic Industrial Palace.

In the team event on November 1, the national teams from all over the world will compete against each other in a knockout system to crown their champion. One day later on November 2, the top-athletes will be battling it out for the Individual title.
