			<title>IISHF Communication Letter 2011-15</title>
			<link>http://www.iishf.com/article.php?artID=255</link>
			<description>1. Canada will not participate in the Men Open European Championship Team Canada has in the very last moment cancelled their participation at the upcoming Men Open European Championship 2011 September 9-11, 2011 in Stegersbach, Austria. This is very sad news and a big disaster for International Inline-Skaterhockey and our plans to expand the sport with new members in this case from North Amercia. The IISHF Presidium has made many attempts to ensure that Canada would come but with very short notice Team Canada decided due to financial constraints to cancel their participation.&#13;
&#13;
According to the IISHF Regulations this non-participation will now have severe consequences for Canada. The IISHF Presidium will discuss this matter and the future IISHF Structure with the member countries at the EGM 2011 in Stegersbach.&#13;
&#13;
We apologize for the inconvenience that this announcement will have for the participating teams and especially the difficulities that it has created for the hosting club Tigers Stegersbach. &#13;
&#13;
2. New Tournament Schedule for the Men European Championship Attached please find the final revised TIME SCHEDULE of the Men European Championship 2011. The new tournament schedule is for the 7 teams taking part in the tournament. Please transfer the document a.s.a.p. to your National Team participating. &#13;
&#13;
3. Age limits for Oldboys/Veterans age category&#13;
BISHA has asked in view of the proposal for the EGM made by Austria regarding veterans age group that each National Member Association could do a comparasion of members in the old age group and new proposed age group. Please inform us about the number of members in those ages latest by Wednesday September 7, 2011. &#13;
&#13;
4. New Starting Time for the EGM Friday September 9, 2011&#13;
Due to the late change of the time schedule of the Men European Championship the starting time for the EGM has been postponed from 7.30 PM Friday evening to 8.30 PM Friday evening.&#13;
&#13;
We are looking forward to the EGM and the Men European Championship in Stegersbach.&#13;
