In early November 2026, several players from the Chur hockey club received international call-ups for various national teams. These include Latvian players Sandis Smons and Rihards Melnalksnis for the Deutschland Cup, goalkeeper Martin Neckar for the French national team, and youth selections for the Swiss and Czech Republic U20 squads.

Separately, Swiss national football coach Murat Yakin announced a 28-player squad for the upcoming Nations League fixtures against Slovenia and Scotland. The selection features players such as Ardon Jashari, Zachary Athekame, and Sascha Britschgi. Switzerland currently leads its Nations League group with 12 points, meaning a draw in the upcoming match against Slovenia would mathematically guarantee qualification.
