The 2022 Goalball World Championships were scheduled to be held in Hangzhou, China, to commence Monday, 5 June 2022,[1] although originally set for Sunday 3 to Friday 15 July 2022.[2] Some precursor regional championships were moved due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic: IBSA America moved from 6 to 13 November 2021 to 18 to 22 February 2022,[2][3] and IBSA Asia moved from November 2021 to commence 21 March 2022.[4]

By June 2022, the IBSA Asia Regional Championships were moved from South Korea to the ISA Sport City at Bahrain for July 2022,[5] and the Centro de Desportos e Congressos de Matosinhos, Portugal, to be the location for the World Championships in December 2022.[6]
