Audience-free matches threaten the clubs' finances: "Can one to two matches"

It was a long time since Krif Hockey entered a season with such good liquidity, says the club's chairman Conny Berg.

- We had a tough time at the end of last season, but we had a bunch of supporters who guaranteed us, which meant that we could pay off our debts, he says.

But then came the corona pandemic, and with it the restrictions that make sporting events must be conducted without an audience.

- We will not be able to do more than one or two matches without an audience, so we are worried, says Conny Berg.

Mörrum Hockey has also been hit hard by the corona virus. 

- The situation is very tough. We are suffering financially from how the season ended due to the corona pandemic. We have informed the players that we must wait with the payment of the salary, says the club's chairman, Anders Gustavsson.
