The Super Globe, an unofficial club team handball World Cup, kicks off on Tuesday, for the 16th time.
Nine years in a row, Doha in Qatar hosted, before Saudi Arabia took over in 2019, where it is being played this year, for the third time in a row.
A team from each continent participates, from Europe the winner of the Champions League gets to go.
This year there are two European teams, as SC Magdeburg is the reigning champion and gets a free place.
The other team is FC Barcelona, where Swedish left-back Jonathan Carlsbogård plays.
- The tournament is there, the clubs are going, I don't know how to answer that really, but I go along and play where the tournament is, he says to SVT Sport.
You haven't talked about it in the club?
- No.
"That's the only thing you can say"
Right-handed Daniel Pettersson plays in the reigning champion team Magdeburg.
- That's where it's planned right now, so we'll go there and play, that's the only thing you can say.
Do you see any problems with it playing there?
- It is the way it is right now and we are going there to play handball, says Pettersson to SVT Sport.
The handball association: "It would have definitely become a discussion"
In order to play in the tournament, victory in the Champions League is required, something that a Swedish team has never succeeded in doing.
- It's nothing that we talked about, there are no teams that have participated from Sweden.
We took part in a World Cup in Qatar in 2016 where we raised many questions about equality and working conditions, but as these are clubs and not Swedish ones, it has not been on the agenda or focus for us, says Fredrik Rapp, chairman of Svenska The handball association to SVT Sport.
Hypothetically then, if a Swedish team had qualified then?
- It had definitely been discussed, then it is up to the law and the league, but there had definitely been a discussion about whether or not to participate, he says.
