The Corona pandemic has caused the sports world to pause. How long nobody knows, but clearly it will be expensive for many.
The athletics clubs are no exception. And SVT Sports expert Kajsa Bergqvist fears that this time is something that the associations will be committed to for a long time to come.
- Much of the association life, especially in athletics, is precisely this money from the big events that may not be lost at all - or at any rate will be significantly less. So this will be a real break for athletics. And that is something that you will also see in the venture for next year, if the clubs have less money to move with, it will affect how much support you can give the active to invest for the 2021 season, she says, and continues:
- So this will affect athletics for a good time to come, even when the worst crisis is over.
