One semi-final to Kristianstad

Fri Nov 06 2009

Finals and one of the semi-finals in Malmo. The second has been undecided, until today, when the board of Handball 2011 decided to locate the other semi-final to Kristianstad.

From the beginning the intention was that Kristianstad would get one of Malmö's matches in the main round, but this was not the International Handball Federation, IHF, along with. It was too far to travel for the teams, said IHF. For the same reason Skövde may not "help" Jönköping with matches in the main round.

One placement matches after the main round will be located in Kristianstad as well. Which one will be determined right after the main round is finished.

- I'm sure there will be a party out of the ordinary in Kristianstad, says Arne Elovsson, president of the World Cup Company.

The sale of tickets for the semi-finals is planned to March 2010, when even more final tickets will be sold.

Semifinal till Kristianstad

Fri Nov 06 2009

Finalen och en semifinal i Malmö. Den andra har varit oklar, till idag, då styrelsen för Handbolls-VM 2011 beslutade att förlägga den andra semifinalen till Kristianstad.

Avsikten från början var att Kristianstad skulle få en av Malmös matcher i huvudrundan, men detta gick inte Internationella Handbollsförbundet, IHF, med på. Det var för långt att förflytta sig för lagen, sa IHF. Av samma anledning får inte Skövde "hjälpa" Jönköping med matcher i huvudrundan.

Även en av placeringsmatcherna efter huvudrundan kommer att förläggas till Kristianstad. Vilken bestäms först efter att huvudrundan är färdigspelad.

– Jag är säker på att det kommer att bli en fest utöver det vanliga i Kristianstad, säger Arne Elovsson, vd för VM-bolaget.

Det är planerat att biljettförsäljningen till semifinalerna kommer att inledas i mars, då även fler finalbiljetter säljs.
