“Being flexible is a must in these special and challenging times.
Therefore, we have made the decision to primarily extend the season for one week ", says Jesper Kärrbrink, vice chairman of the Swedish Bandy Association, in a press release.
"The start of the series was postponed and several matches have been postponed during the winter.
It is therefore necessary to extend the season and thus create a more airy game schedule for both ladies and gentlemen.
We hope that this initiative is enough, but together with the association we follow the development closely and are prepared for further delays ", says Per Selin, league manager for the Elite Series men and women.
The bandy association expects that the season will end without an audience in the stands.
"However, it makes match moves easier to carry out, an issue that is normally very complex," says Per Selin.
