Dear Dr. de Maiziere,
On behalf of the International Floorball Federation and the International Floorball community I would like to express my gratitude about your patronage of the EuroFloorball Cup which was held from 5 till 9 October 2016 in Weissenfels (Sachsen-Anhalt), Germany .
Moreover, I would like to express my special thanks for your kind words of welcome that you have sent. Your recognition of the EuroFloorball Cup 2016 has proven to be a very positive sport-political sign, both nationally and internationally, and it is of immense support for our development — not only to be part of The World Games 2017 in Poland —but also to become a part of The Olympic Games in the long term.
Furthermore, I would like to praise the local organisers of the event in Weissenfels, who delivered an event of a very high standard. It has been a pleasure for the IFF to return to Weissenfels and we are sure that all of the participating teams have been satisfied with their visit.
Yours sincerely,
John Liljelund
IFF secretary general
