After last season, Ulf Lundberg replaced Ylva Martinsen as the national team captain for Damkronorna.

However, he has had a very special start to his time as leader of the team, and has still not been allowed to do any tournaments with the team.

The Corona pandemic canceled the planned Euro Hockey Tour tournament which was to have been played in Ljungby in December - and instead it became a training camp in Sundsvall.

New camp in Sundsvall

Now it is also clear that there will be no matches in February either.

A Euro Hockey Tour tournament was planned for February 8-15, but these will not be canceled due to the current situation.

- Both we and other countries have decided that we do not travel to each other, explains the Swedish Ice Hockey Association's competition director Olof Östblom.

Instead, plans are now being made for a new camp in Sundsvall.

The women's crowns left the A-WC almost two years ago.

Last year's B-WC was canceled due to the corona pandemic, and the same thing has already happened with this year's championship.

In November, it is intended that the national team will play Olympic qualifiers.

The only matches that Damkronorna played this season were two training matches in November (6-0 against Norway and 4-3 against Denmark).
