I hadn't heard any of this either, guess that's what happens if you take a year off from World's. Hopefully this site can keep people informed of these sorts of issues.

In my opinion I don't think World's should be moved just to coincide with what CMAS is doing. I think the World UWH community is who should be making these decisions for the benifit of our sport. Any comp in SA is good for the sport given the support and following that the country has, both for hockey and as a travel destination. You can see this by the numbers that Interclubs attracts.

So I'm all in favour of Worlds 2008 to be in SA.
