IIHF filed an appeal due to the admission of Russian hockey teams.
The International Hockey Federation appealed the admission of the Russian national teams to international competitions at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
According to media reports, the IIHF claims that two of the three CAS members responsible for the admission decision did not disclose the business ties with Russia. The new report states that CAS has ordered the IIHF to allow Russian teams to compete, starting with the 2027 World Junior Championships in Edmonton.
