CAPETOWN - On February 18, our ladies traveled to South African Capetown where they will participate in the IIHF World Championship DIV2B that will take place from 20-26 February. Our ladies were promoted from DIV3A last year and therefore face a major challenge: to stay in this group in the first place, but also to try to return home with a medal.
In addition to hosts South Africa, their opponents are Australia, New Zealand, and Croatia. Fifth opponent Turkey withdrew due to the huge earthquake in the country.
Our ladies will start their campaign against Croatia on Tuesday 21 February. Immediately a formidable opponent. All matches can be followed online via live streaming.
