Of course, there was extra focus on Stina Nilsson, who after her change to biathlon only had time to be with a competition weekend earlier.
The association was also curious about what she can achieve after the summer and autumn training.
- Yes, we want to see her compete.
She is an interesting name with that background, says Anna-Maria Uusitalo, sports director for the Swedish Biathlon Association.
In the current situation, it has become difficult for the new biathlete to show himself.
But in training, she continues to convince.
- She is becoming more and more a biathlete.
She has really taken on the task and it is noticeable that she understands what job is required.
We see great potential in her, but it is important that she gets time, Uusitalo tells TT.
The association will announce on Tuesday whether Stina Nilsson will be allowed to run an IBU Cup.
- We will combine her achievements here in Östersund with other things we have seen during training and make a decision after the competition on Monday.
We will announce the decision the next day.
Sara Andersson from Mora won the women's competition.
