The Academic World Ice Hockey Championship has recently become the world's most prestigious tournament. This phenomenon increases the performance demands on the Czech national team. The national coach has brought up a request to determine condition levels and "typology" of selected players. The empirical findings made by the coach indicate that the level of Academic Championship performance corresponds to the Czech first or second league level. The aim of study was to determine anaerobic capacity (ANC), anaerobic capacity recounted per kilogram of body mass (ANC.kg-1) and fatigue index in the context with total revolutions performed in the W-30 Wingate test. The test results were subsequently compared to the national academic team players with standard performance corresponding to the first national Czech league. The 30 second cycling Wingate test W-30 was used to determine anaerobic performance (anaerobic endurance). The research sample consists of 19 players of the national academic team performing at the 2009 World Cup. The comparison was based on the mean values and dispersion of performances of the research group and the specified standards of the first league players. Specified standards have been derived from a long-term study of first league players (HELLER, VODIČKA, PAVLIS 2009). The readiness of the players representing the national academic team was comparable to the standard performance of the first league players. Average value of Pmax.kg-1 was 15,3 W.kg-1 (the first league player average was 15,2 W.kg-1 ) and average value of AnC.kg-1 347 J.kg-1 (the first league player average was ranging from 342 J.kg-1 to 349 J.kg-1).
