The Deutscher Eishockey-Bund has followed the political developments closely and registered the decision on the subject of major sporting events. First of all, we welcome the formation of a working group that will deal with the framework conditions for the return of spectators over the next two months. It will be of immense importance to clearly regulate how small, medium and large sporting events are defined and, on this basis, to develop a clear perspective, which is absolutely urgently necessary. This is an essential point for ice hockey as well as other team sports. In addition to the existing hygiene concepts, we are ready to continue to make our contribution so that approval is granted by November at the latest Fans is possible again.
