Representatives of International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) also know about problems with the location of a new world championships arena. Slovakia got a claim to host the 75^th IIHF Ice Hockey World Championships in 2011. The games should be played in Kosice’s Steel Arena and in the future built Arena 2011 in Bratislava. But nowadays there are still only talks about the location, where should be the arena built.

“We heard about that. World Championships in 2011 are fare and until that should be everything ready” said president of IIHF René Fasel.

In last few months doubt talks occured, whether the arena should be build till the beginnings of the championships. Some prominents think, that it will be better for Slovakia to change the term of the event with another country. “We are not thinking about the exchange”, Fasel said.
