For the first time in history, Khabarovsk will be the venue for an international tournament between club teams with the participation of guests from Sweden. From September 5 to 8, a tournament for the Cup of the Governor of the Khabarovsk Territory will be held in the Yerofey Arena in Khabarovsk. Four teams will participate, SKA Neftyanik and Baikal Energy and the two Swedish teams Edsbyn and Bollnäs.
It is the first time ever that SKA Neftyanik hosts an international club team tournament. The only two Swedish club teams that previously played in Khabarovsk are Boltic and Ljusdal who were visiting for friendly games in 1978 and 1982 respectively.
