On Wednesday 1 December, the requirements will be introduced for those who go to indoor events with over 100 visitors.

They must then present proof that they have taken two doses of covid-19 vaccine.

Many organizers are positive about the measure.

- We would rather drive on with full capacity and check covid passes, than go back to new restrictions, says Annelie Telford, CEO of the club Debaser in Stockholm.

- Hockey has said early on that we are happy to work with this method, and we believe that it is a good way to handle the future, says Mats Grauers, chairman of Frölunda HC.

Old restrictions no alternative

It is not mandatory for organizers to require vaccination certificates.

But otherwise they must return to restrictions such as designated seating and requirements of at least one meter distance between different companies.

- In that case, we can only receive ten percent of our capacity, says Annelie Telford.

But despite the positive reactions, there are concerns and question marks among the organizers about what is expected of them and how the controls should go.

- Will we find vaccine proof readers to the extent we need?

Does the technology work?

That's what we're worried about.

There will of course be some running-in problems, says Mats Grauers, chairman of Frölunda HC.

Organizers do not have time to test drive

The authority for digital administration, DIGG, which previously developed a solution for reading test and recovery certificates, has been commissioned to develop a new app.

But the app is not yet out and is expected to be launched only on Wednesday.

- What can hinder now is the process that is in the hands of others, to approve apps and the like, which can be a little difficult to get through.

But otherwise, I think the technology is at the forefront of this short development process we have had, says Mats Snäll, head of digital development at DIGG.

- It is part of the problem that we have not yet been allowed to test drive this.

It would be good to be able to do it a few days before we introduce it, says Annelie Telford, CEO of Debaser.
