Still, stay alert
No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.
- Double-check the exact URL in your address bar
Confirm you are actually on worldhockeygroup.com and not a lookalike like w-orldhockeygroup.com.com or an IDN homoglyph.
- Use a password manager
Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

- worldhockeygroup.com passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 87/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
- Yes. worldhockeygroup.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · E8, expiring in 31 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
