The decision to choose Bad Mitterndorf as the host of the Championships was announced on 1 April 2021.[2] Originally, the event was to be held in Harrachov, but was moved due to technical and financial problems related to the Čerťák facility.[3]

The defending champion was Marius Lindvik from Norway and the Slovenian national team. Lindvik finished 13th, while Slovenia successfully defended the title.
