Two rounds remained of the women's SSL when the Swedish floor association made the decision to cancel the season due to the spread of the cornavirus. The Swedish floor association also made the decision to move down the two teams that were under the line, Dalen and Skoghall. This despite the fact that Dalen only had two points up to Warberg, with two games left to play - and thus the chance to pass the contract.
- We think it is strange that the Svenska Innebandyförbundet says that you cannot extend SSL Dam but that you can expand many other series. We have seen how they have changed in other series, we can take the damall Swan where you go from four eight-team series to a ten, twelve, twelve and fourteen-team series, says Dalens club director Urban Karlsson to Innebandymagazinet, and continues:
- And in Division 1 Northern gentlemen, there was talk of becoming 17 teams, so what's the deal with running 15 teams in SSL Dam? It feels very strange to make such a decision when we have the chance to stay.
"Lex Dalen"Now the team has decided to appeal the decision to the Riksidrottsnämnden (Rin), and has hired a lawyer to get help with it.
- Lex Valley as we call it. We will appeal that the ladies have been relegated to the Allsvenskan and we will take the help of a lawyer to help us write an appeal to the Riksidrottsnämnden, and we have high hopes of getting through this, says Urban Karlsson, and further states that he has already been in contact with Rin:
- I have talked to the Swedish Sports Commission's chairman who said that you think this way, it is obvious that you should appeal. Then I talked to the Swedish Union Association's lawyer this morning, too, because we do not think they have come out with any decision yet to us, we miss it. We would like to have a written decision and not only that it says on the website that Dalens ladies are sent so that they would take hold and also talk about what applies with the appeal and how long we have on us.
