Slovakia and Russia a part of the elite world group<\/h2>\r\nSpectators may also be intrigued by the dramatic and interesting moments that the Slovak hockey team may present at the championships as the team is entering the elite world group for the first time. “Despite the current, difficult situation, we are in a positive mood and are meeting expectations, because it will be our first world championships among the elite group,” said the manager of the Slovak para hockey team Miroslav Dr\u00e1b. The Slovak national team is also currently struggling with the fact that it cannot train to its full potential. All teams of the elite world group lack match preparation on the international field. “The mood in our team is still good and we are all looking forward to Ostrava,” added Dr\u00e1b.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nAll news from the preparations for the Ostrava 2021 Para Hockey World Championships can be found on the www.parahockey.cz<\/a>website and on social networks @parahockey.cz.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
