Swedish Athletics Association is raging against the National Sports Association: "Risks to bind individual sports"

Recently, the start of the Swedish football season has been a hot potato, and the Public Health Agency has had meetings with the Swedish Football Association and the Swedish elite football association.

Now, the Swedish Athletics Association has sent an open letter to the National Sports Federation, showing a clear dissatisfaction with RF's actions in the Senate era.

“The fact that RF in addition meets the Public Health Authority together with the Swedish Football Association and the Swedish Elite Football, while other sports do not even have the opportunity to reconcile their issues with RF's staff is not good. We believe that RF's mission is to bring an action for the entire sport, "they write in the letter, which is signed by the union's chairman Johan Storåkers and secretary general Stefan Olsson.

In the letter they also list a number of issues to RF. Including:

“How does RF view the conditions of elite sports and professional assets? Why does sport have tougher regulations for professional practice than other sectors of society? At present, an entire professional group, which is largely made up of young adults, is prevented from performing their job without taking into account the real risks inherent in their practice ”.

In the letter, they also highlight that they believe they should receive an answer shortly.

“We believe that a customized and responsible competition business does not contribute to increased dissemination of infection and that a continued total association risks causing unnecessary damage to assets, associations and associations. This also includes clarification on guidelines for sports schools and camps, including our athletics schools, "they write, and continue:

“It is therefore imperative that RF, as the highest representative of the sport, takes on the task of acting quickly and with prompt handling. We respect the responsibility of coordinating the entire sporting situation, but clarify the need to take into account the differences in sports and the real risks. Everything else would be unsportsmanlike. "
