Request for special permit for German player for the U13 European Cup The Youth Team of HC Köln-West Rheinos is qualified to participate at the U16 European Cup 2012. The German Federation has received an application from the German club about the use of a specific player. The player is named Marcel Baer, born 16.06.1994. Because of a nephropathy disease the boy is much smaller than other children of his age and the German national association (ISHD) gave him a special permit to participate in last year Youth-Championships in Germany. The German Federation has provided IISHF with sufficient documentation including a detailed report of the doctor and some photos showing him and other player of his team. For him it is his lifetime dream to play this event and the German Federation hope it is possible to allow him to participate. They mentioned that it is the same situation like the pee-wee-player Marcel Schönke-Bienefeld from Kaarst and so they hope we may manage it in the same way. The IISHF Presidium is favor of providing a special permit for the German player to participate in the U16 European Cup but we need to have the acceptance from the NMA?s before we can grant the special permission. So if any NMA?s will not accept the special permission to be given then please inform us within 2 weeks. Deadline Sunday May 13, 2012.

The requirement for hosting an IISHF Title Event for clubteams is participation from minimum 3 countries with in total a minimum of 8 teams. In order to go ahead with their plans to host the tournament BISHA wants to have a feedback from the other member countries about their intent to participate and if so with how many teams. Deadline for reply is September 7, 2011 (4 weeks).

Similar has Copenhagen Vikings shown in interest in hosting the Veterans/Old Boys European Cup already in 2012 after they won the first National Championship in Denmark in this age category on July 30, 2011. The same requirement applies here so in order to go ahead with their plans to host the tournament DRsU-Skaterhockey (Denmark) wants to have a feedback from the other member countries about their intent to participate and if so with how many teams.

3. Incident at the European Cup for Men 2011
There was a very chaotic ending to the final game and the following Presentation Ceremony of the European Cup for Men 2011 in Essen, Germany on July 10, 2011. IISHF is currently handling a disciplinary case regarding the action of an IISHF Referee at the end of the final game and the behaviour of some of the participating teams at the Presentation Ceremony. It's our firm belief that's it's in the best interest of the skaterhockey community that our Title Events takes place in a sportive exciting but also in a fair and friendly atmosphere.
