Today, Monday August 30, the FIB Executive Committee had an extra meeting per capsulam and then made decisions regarding FIB-sanctioned international tournaments. One of the decisions concerned the World Championship for the men’s A-group that was planned to be played in Irkutsk in October this year will be moved to October 2022. The tournament will still be played in Ice Palace Baikal in Irkutsk.
At the EC meeting, it was also decided that no FIB-sanctioned international tournaments will be played in the coming season until December 31. Invitation to the tournaments that will be played in 2022 will be sent out to the national member federations in September.
Every participant in these tournaments as players, leaders, referees and officials must be fully vaccinated against covid infection and hold vaccination certificates accordingly.
