A total of 11 qualified teams (Czech Republic, Finland, Latvia, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark, Germany, Slovenia, Russia and Poland) have replied that they are able to participate and the five qualified teams (Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand and Norway) have replied that they – due to Covid-19 and travel restrictions cannot participate. Moreover, the IFF CB decided to include Estonia, Austria, Belgium and Italy as replacing teams – based on regional quotas, ranking order of the nations, and their readiness and willingness to participate. Later, it was announced that Hungary will be participating in place of Russia. Russia cannot apply for an exemption for entry due to the new entry restrictions for Czech Republic that came into force on 1st July. The IFF and NFFR have mutually agreed that, unfortunately, due to these restrictions it is not possible for Russia to participate at this time.
