Winter Universiade appearances (overview)

Ukraine competed at the 2023 Winter World University Games in Lake Placid, United States, from 12 to 22 January 2023.

On 12 July 2022, it was announced that the Ukraine men's national ice hockey team was selected to compete at the Games.[1][2] It will mark the return of the Ukraine team after the ten-year pause when the team last competed at the 2013 Winter Universiade. Ukraine will not compete in curling.[1]

The national ice hockey team went on a tour in Canada before the Universiade.[3] On December 30, the Ukrainian team lost 2–0 to the University of Saskatchewan Huskies.[4][5]

On 28 December 2022, the Committee on the Physical Training and Sports of the Ministry of Youth and Sports of Ukraine announced that the Ukrainian team was expected to be represented by 61 athletes competing in 8 sports: biathlon, alpine skiing, Nordic combined, cross-country skiing, snowboarding, figure skating, ice hockey, and short track speed skating.[6]
