The current situation in Switzerland regarding COVID-19 is unfortunately not allowing us to hold the Swiss Alp League on the planned dates in January, February, and March 2021. In consultation with the club presidents and the Swiss Alp League taskforce, there are alternative plans that will be pursued. We have chosen to keep the current planned dates of korfball events and prioritize the Swiss Alp League over the other planned events, giving us three options:
- Option 1: 13 March in Lausanne, 18 April in Basel, 29 May in Zürich.
The decision will be taken early February. Criteria: Clubs are able to train fully for a month (i.e. from 13.02 onward) and we are allowed to play games between clubs in all cantons. - Option 2: 18 April in Basel, 29 May in Zürich, 26 June in Lausanne.
The decision will be taken early March. Criteria: Clubs are able to train fully for a full month (i.e. from 18.03 onward) and we are allowed to play games between clubs in all cantons. - Option 3: A one-day tournament on either 29 May in Zürich or on 26 June in Lausanne.
Clubs are encouraged to organize a Match Day instead should there be a possibility to do so on shorter notice in the months of January and February on the previously planned dates. We hope that we can continue the current level of growth end enthusiasm for korfball in Switzerland, and will do everything possible within the boundaries of COVID-19 to keep korfball going.
Note: the selections for the national team still occur in the weekend of 17/18 April, irrespective of the other activities planned in the same weekend.
