The International Hockey Federation (FIH) would like to state that the BDO World Cup Qualifier women in Santiago, Chile will go ahead. Because of the different travel problems of multiple participating teams to reach the Chilean capital, the match schedule is being revised.
At this stage, two of the five participants are onsite in Santiago: Australia and host Chile. Ireland, Malaysia and Scotland saw their flights booked being cancelled. They are now in the stage of re-booking and as soon as their new itineraries are confirmed, the FIH will publish a new match schedule.
With the two teams already onsite, the FIH would like to confirm that the first match of the BDO World Cup Qualifier will be Chile-Australia on Saturday 24 April 2010 at 15:30. Furthermore, it is still the plan to have the final on Sunday 2 May 2010 at 12:00.
