And they succeeded. Basically, if you need something just send hockey players to protest, no top politician will dares to go against them :lol:

 

 

The Prime Minister and the Crisis Staff have just decided that all sporting events will be allowed to take place. The only condition is if the number of participants (athletes, coaches, referees and organizational staff) exceeds the number of 50 people the event must take place without spectators.

For the time being, most of our sports associations agree with this, but at the same time they will seek negotiations on financial compensation if this situation lasts longer.

and another 17 Different IIHF Ice Hockey World Championships are officially cancelled including the M U18 Division I Group A in Slovakia next April, so the amount is now 28...

 

 

Basically ALL tournaments except the Top Divisions of the Men´s, Men´s U20, Men´s U18 and Women´s. (which will be played in bubbles and no one will be relegated)

 

Also the W 2022 Beijing Olympic qualification has been postponed...again

Remember the M Final OQT remains scheduled for 26-29 August 2021

 

 

Also since the 2020 IIHF M World Championship Division II Group A and the 2021 Women’s World Championship Division I Group B were originally supposed to serve as official Beijing 2022 Test events are now cancelled, the IOC announced that an adapted sports testing program will be devised for ice hockey and other Olympic sports for 2022.

I don't get it, with all those three vaccines the situation till April and May can be way better than now, they should wait at least until February, to be honest...

I think people are a bit too much expecting a vaccine (which isn't entirely ready to be rolled out yet) to make everything all fine within 2-3 months :p 

 

Most likely it will take quite a lot longer than that..

Even if vaccine(s) won't be available until this time the organizers could still make a bubble for athletes, just like it's in other sports, cancellation isn't good solution, especially that all those events were cancelled also in this year...

    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything
