The 1954 Roller Hockey World Cup was the tenth roller hockey world cup, organized by the Fédération Internationale de Patinage a Roulettes (now under the name of Fédération Internationale de Roller Sports). It was contested by 15 national teams (12 from Europe, 2 from South America and 1 from Africa) and it is also considered the 1954 European Roller Hockey Championship (despite the presence of non-European teams). All the games were played in the city of Barcelona, in Spain, the chosen city to host the World Cup.
