Spain national roller hockey team is the national team side of Spain at international roller hockey. It is one of the best teams of the world and has been dominating both the Rink Hockey World Championship and the Rink Hockey European Championship in the last decade. They are the current holders of both titles, won in 2013 and 2012.

The Spain national side is Catalonia based, since roller hockey is specially popular in that Spanish region, although it also has first-class teams in other regions, like Galicia and the Canary Islands.
