The outcome is slightly better than the same period last year. There are no big differences to the budget at the moment, but a few new budget posts have been included. Concerning the balance the situation looks quite good, a lot of costs have already been paid. Mr. King asked the reason for the lower budget figure for the office costs. Mr. Kratz answered that the reason for this is the employment of the CC brand manager and the IFF trainee, which are effecting the budget in the end of the year. Mr. Eriksson stressed that working with the cash-flow should be high-lighted and the situation looks much better. Mr. Suman asked if the financial situation is in balance, which Mr. Kratz answered that the situation looks ok, apart from maybe the WFC 2015 marketing income. The CB decided: To approve the reports.
Mr. Kratz presented the claims situation by the 31.07.2015 (Appendix 3). Not much had happened during the summer, but the tendency is that the associations will start paying off In addition Mr. Kratz reported on the claims situation for the teams registered for the WFC 2015 (Appendix 4b). The IFF Office needs to monitor the countries, not participated in the IFF events, with unpaid membership fees piling up. Mr. Suman asked what the membership fee is for the provisional members, which is 500 CHF for the first four years. Mr. Eriksson proposed to give the Office the task to clarify the membership fee system, to avoid unnecessary problems. Further Mr. Kratz reported on the claims situation for the teams having registered for the U19 WFC 2016 (Appendix 4b). Of the teams participating in the upcoming IFF Events, at the moment there are three countries, namely Jamaica, Russia and Singapore.

Mr. King presented the Discussion paper for the CB to define how the IFF License for Participation at Major Events – version 2.0, based on the discussions held by the IFF ExCo. (Appendix 5) shall be built. The CB decided: to approve the path forward and Mr. King and Mr. Liljelund was given the task to prepare the proposal for the IFF Associations Meeting in December 2015. Mr. Bollinger reported that he due to his new employment at the Sports Ministry, has decided to resign from the IFF CB with full effect from the 30th of September. (Appendix 6a). Mr. Bollinger stressed that it has been a very interesting time in the Swiss Floorball and the IFF and hopes to see the sport at the Olympics one day. Mr. Eriksson informed that the SUHV has decided to propose to replace Mr. Bollinger, with the SUHV CB member Mr. Jörg Beer, who has a vast experience of Swiss Floorball and also international floorball (Appendix 6b and appendix 6c).

a) WFC 2014 Sweden Mr. Wolmhed gave a short final report on the Men‘s 10th WFC 2014 Final Round played in Gothenburg, Sweden from the 5th to 14th of December 2014. (Appendix 7). The SIBF thinks that they have organised a very good event and they were pleased with the co-operation with the IFF. The main problem was the financial deficit of EUR 600.000 of the Event. A lot of new processes were included in the process with the Fun Zone, Sports museums etc. Mr. Rantakari asked how the deficit was accumulated, during a four year cycle. Mr. Suman asked how the IFF will deal with the fact that the WFC 2014 financial was negative. Mr. Suman felt that the SIBF is accusing the IFF for making some of the deficit. Mr. Eriksson felt that it is important to have a clear picture of the whole event in the report. Mr. Liljelund proposed to overlook the financial reporting structure in the WFC agreement and the follow-up methods. The IFF shall also answer the SIBF that the IFF will overlook the challenges described in the report.
Mr. Rantakari gave a short report of the preparations of the Women‘s WFC 2015 and the steps taken so far in the process (Appendix 8). The WFC 2015 LOC is starting a school campaign to secure local spectators for the Event, as the ticket sales has not taken off yet. There is a school campaign with over 40 schools starting and the LOC has made a 100 day activation in the City. There are also challenges to find sponsors for the Event, mainly due to the difficult financial situation in Finland. Also there is a small issue with the number of the volunteers. Mr. Suman asked what the financial effect will be for the IFF if the WFC marketing sales will not achieve the budgeted numbers for IFF. Mr. Kratz answered that the effect could be around 35.000 – 40.000 CHF. The LOC has asked the participating National Teams to participate in a school campaign and visit a school for one hour. Unfortunately a few teams have refrained from participating in the campaign. The LOC has asked what can be done to secure this. Mr. King felt that it is very important to give the LOC the possibility to carry out such events. The CB discussed the question in-depth and unanimously expressed their wish that the national teams would participate in the campaign. Mr. Liljelund reported on the TV situation, so far the WFC LOC and IFF has contracted an own production company, the Latvian Polar HD to produce both the TV signal and the internet-TV signal. Finnish YLE will act as HB and work with all details related to signal transfer and satellite segments. The total number of TV games is still unsure, but the discussions with the Czech, Finnish, Slovak and Swedish TV‘s has been running well. Also contacts have been taken to German, Latvian, Norwegian and Swiss TV. (Appendix 9a) In order to secure the maximum number of TV matches, as TV production is only made in the main venue Hakametsä, there has been a number of changes of starting times and even some changes of venues to facilitate the interest of the TV channels which have answered in time. (Appendix 9b) Ms. Bruun informed that the changes in the match schedule will be published in the next week. The CB decided: To approve the report and strongly urge the participating nations to participate in LOC school campaign.
Mr. Wolmhed report on the U19 WFC 2015 final round that was played in Helsingborg, Sweden 29.04-03.05.2015. (Appendix 32) The championships was well organized and the sports result was very interesting overall. The challenges were few, with a slight lack of volunteers in the beginning of the event. The CB decided: To approve the report.
Mr. Kratz reported on the preparations for the Men‘s 11th WFC 2016 to be played in Riga, Latvia. (Appendix 10) The qualifications are under preparations, after a number of discussions. The WFCQ groups are divided as follows:
Mr. King informed that Thailand has confirmed that they are ready to organize the qualification. Mr. Suman asked how the preparations of the final round is proceeding. Mr. Liljelund answered that the preparations are proceeding. Mr. Lopez stressed that it is important that in the qualifications everybody feels that they are part of the WFC Final round. It would be important to stress that this is a part of the WFC. The CB decided: To approve the report. e) U19 WFC 2016 Mr. Kratz reported on the preparations taken by the LOC for the Women‘s U19 WFC 2016 to be played in Canada 04-08.05.2016. There are 16 teams participating in the Event. The LOC has finalized the logo for the Event and is planning to launch the web site in the coming weeks and provide the participants with technical information. The schedule will be published in beginning of September. The cooperation with the U19 WFC 2016 LOC is working well. Ms. Bruun wanted to point out that the organisers overall seems to have a tough time to understand the big picture and that it is not a local event. The CB decided: To approve the report
Mr. Kratz reported on the national associations, which has informed their interest to organise the Women‘s WFC 2019 and the Men‘s WFC 2020. The following National Associations have shown their interest: In accordance with the previous IFF CB decisions the CB needs to decide upon the organiser of the Women‘s WFC in December 2015. The Competition Office will start the bidding process in the Event Management Tool for both the 2019 and 2020 WFC‘s for the December 2015 meeting. The CB decided: To approve the report and start the bidding process with the interested organisers, in order to decide upon the WFC 2019 and 2010 organisers in its meeting in December 2015.
a) EuroFloorball Cup 2015 Mr. Kratz reported on the preparations for the EFC 2015 to be played in Cesis, Latvia 06-10.10.2015. (Appendix 12) Due to the issues of finding organisers for the Event and the late confirmation of organisers for the EuroFloorball Challenge (EFCh) the invitation was sent late which lead to only a few registrations. The total number of registrations for the EuroFloorball Cup (EFC) together with the teams registered for the EFCh is anyhow sufficient to organise a complete EFC. After a long process we got enough participants to play the EuroFloorball Cup final round. The EFC 2015 looks as follows:
Mr. Suman asked if there are ideas why there no participants from the countries that usually participate. Mr. Kratz answered that there has been a number of countries thinking Latvia was too far. Mr. Rantakari asked about the general situation of the Cup‘s and Mr. Kratz explained that the general problem was that we were late with the organisers, which lead to a smaller number of participants. In the future the teams will only play one tournament per year as the EFC winner will go to the next year Champions Cup. Ms. Bakke answered that there is a generation change ongoing in Norway and the best teams are already in the Champions Cup this year. Mr. Lopez felt that we need to move in the same direction as the Champions Cup, to reduce the tournament days to three. The CB decided: To approve the report. b) Champions Cup 2015 Mr. Suman reported on the preparations for the 5th edition of the Champions Cup that will be played in Mlada Boleslav, the Czech Republic from October 2nd to October 4th, 2015. The LOC has started with the promotional campaign to secure spectators and raise the general awareness towards the Champions Cup. The plan is built on the experience from the CC2011 and the support from the City is very good. The TV negotiations have been started and TV has been secured for Czech Republic (Czech TV), Sweden (TV4 – all Swedish games) and Finland (all Finnish games). No reaction yet from Swiss or Norwegian TV. The aim is to keep the budget even, which is a problem if you can‘t start the negotiations already two years in advance Mr. Suman further reported on the meeting held by the IFF Champions Cup Steering Group 02/2015, held in Prague on the 20.05.2015, where the overall targets of the Champions Cup and the role and duties of the CC Brand Manager was discussed. (Appendix 13) The main outcome was how to continue with the project of the Champions Cup 3rd edition. The CB decided: To approve the report
Mr. Rantakari gave a short update to the CB on the actions taken to support the LOC of the CC2015 in Mlada Boleslav and the plans to start building the sales system for the CC for the future. Mr. Eriksson stressed that it is important to look over the operations and activate the national associations and clubs. The CB decided: To approve the reports
a) ExCo reports Mr. Eriksson reported on the ExCo meeting held on the 9th of July and the decisions taken there. (Appendix 14) The ExCo discussed the situation created by the attack of the former SportAccord President Mr. Mariuz Vizer on the IOC and President Bach and the actions IFF is to take in respect to that. Also the meetings during SportAccord Convention were discussed. Mr. Eriksson stressed the importance to involve more countries in the international development for the long term period. There is a need to work with the countries closely, therefore the ExCo proposes to organise a Core Country Presidents meeting (CC10). Mr. Suman felt that the need to have close contacts more frequently is important to build the general knowledge on the international level questions, so it would be good to have them on a regular basis. Ms. Bakke agrees that this is the right approach and believes that there is an interest from these countries to participate. Mr. Lopez is afraid that this will affect the IFF General Assemblies importance. There is a need to specify that the topics are of a different nature than the IFF General Assemblies. Ms. Kotikova felt that it is a good idea, but there can be a discussion which countries should be included. Ms. Bruun felt that this could be where the national association can reach when they have fulfilled a certain criteria‘s in the IFF License System. Mr. Suman felt that it is important to keep the importance of the IFF General Assembly and Associations Meeting. Mr King feels it is important that this not be focussed on only European issues, but it should be International focussed. Mr. Eriksson reported on the discussion held in the IFF ExCo of the possible need to look over some of the clauses in the IFF Statutes for the IFF General Assembly 2016. Especially to increase the involvement of the persons on the IFF level and the number of non-Europeans in the IFF CB. There are a number of possibilities to secure this, but the importance is to have spokespersons for what the IFF are discussing and bringing forward. Mr. King felt that at some point that the need to enlarge the CB could be interesting, but maybe not now. There are models to restrict the number of representation for only one per country in the CB, maybe with the Athletes Commission President excluded. Mr. Mikkola thinks that it would be interesting to include persons in the area which is growing strongly. However you need to keep in mind that the persons needs to have them still working for the national associations. Mr. Wolmhed thinks that we are forming a group for political issues, so there is not a need to enlarge the group. Mr. Suman feels that the goal is good to involve as many persons and associations as possible, but not to enlarge the CB now and involve them in other way. It is important to keep the CB on the high level and we should continue to work as close as a group. Mr. King concluded that we need to start to discussion for the future and prepare a discussion paper for the inclusion of more member in the IFF work for the first CB meeting in 2016. Mr. King gave an oral report on the present activities of the AOFC and the upcoming tasks for next year. (Appendix 15) There is a number of teams participating in the IFF events, but we need to create an event to start playing international matches. Also the work to start conversing countries to new IFF members. The AOFC is organising an introductory Floorball sessions on Fiji for coaches at schools, where Mr. King and the New Zealand secretary general Mr. Christian Bertschinger will run the sessions. Mr. King also gave a small report on how the discussions are going to restructure the AOFC. The plan is to propose to work with regional development committees in West-Asia, South-East Asia, East –Asia and Oceania, to speed up the development. Mr. King further addressed the questions the Japanese Floorball Federation has directed to the IFF CB, through the AOFC. (Appendix 15a) The process for applying for the Additional Events in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, has given a lot of media attention to the JFF. They have asked if we can help them to become a sport on the Sport Initiation Process. Mrs. Mikkola gave an oral report on the present activities in the Americas and also report on the recent activities in Brazil (Appendix 16). There has been a lot of activities planned in Brazil in relation to the Rio Olympics. The BFA wanted to organise a campaign “Bring a Floorball Stick” to gain materials to the country, but first the BFA needs to be officially registered. The BFA is trying to tap into the Nordic embassies and companies. In Jamaica not much has happened lately apart from the good development on the Special Olympics group, which has 93 players. There is a big Special Olympics event in Jamaica in the fall. Mr. Suman asked of other development in South America. Mr. Lopez informed that there are some clubs in Peru, which have worked with the Floorball4all. There are movement in Colombia. The CB decided: To approve the reports and gave Mr. Tomas Eriksson and Mr. Steve King to prepare the discussion paper on member involvement in the IFF, for the 1st CB meeting 2016. Mr. King will respond to the Japanese federation concerning the Tokyo Olympic Games actions.
Mr. Eriksson shortly reported on the activities taken in relation to the recent crisis in and around SportAccord after the attack of Mr. Vizer on IOC President Bach. IFF has been actively taking part in the process and IFF has written a letter to IOC to support the IOC Agenda 2020. As a result of this IFF has been able to secure a meeting with IOC President Thomas Bach on 30th of September and a separate meeting with the IOC Sport Department and its Sport Director Mr. Kit McConnell. Mr. Eriksson further reported on the SportAccord Convention and General Assembly held in Sochi, Russia in April. (Appendix 17a). After a number of SportAccord members and the IOC have withdrawn their support from the SportAccord and Mr. Vizer has resigned, the total structure of SportAccord has been changed and an Extra Ordinary Annual General Assembly is called together in November (Appendix 17b) Mr. Eriksson stressed that IFF had a golden opportunity in the ARISF elections. Mr. Eriksson reported on the Floorball tournament played during the SEA Games in Singapore in June 2015. (Appendix 18) The tournament was played with four men‘s teams (Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand) and three Women‘s teams (Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand) when the Philippines withdrew just a week prior to the Event. The tournament was a huge success with a massive number of spectators and even over-full venues with a lot of top SEA Games NOC. It was a very well organised Floorball tournament and gives good basis for the next steps to talk with the Malaysian association. Mr. Liljelund reported that the qualification system for the World Games 2017 in Wroclaw has been approved by the IWGA. The system has been approved by the IFF CB in 2014, with the top three teams from the Men‘s WFC 2016 together with the best ranked neighboring team (Czech Republic, Germany, Latvia, Russia, Slovakia and Ukraine), the best ranked non-European team (must be ranked ate least 12th in the WFC) and Poland are participating in the Mr. Suman felt that we need to support how all countries can contribute to the possible pre-events. Mr. Eriksson further reported about his meetings held in connection to the Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles, in end of July 2015. (Appendix 19) The Special Olympics feels that Floorball is a good example on how to work International Federations. From the political point of view we have drawn the right decision to work together with the Special Olympics. Mr. Eriksson IOC has approved the IFF plans for Development and Anti-Doping Education and granted IFF the IOC-ARISF support of 25.000 USD for 2015.

The RC also decided to nominate Mr. Jesper Juul Gobel as an international referee observer.

The CB decided: To approve the report and nominate Mr. Jesper Juul Gobel as an International Referee Observer for the period 2015-2016.
The new testing pool system with club team & national team whereabouts seems to work alright, due to the support of the national associations. Also the 1st blood tests ordered by IFF have been conducted successfully. In addition Ms. Bruun gave a short report about the difficult Adverse Analytical Finding in the spring, which has now been solved by WADA. The CB decided: To approve the report.

(Appendix 23) The meeting discussed the way the ATC could work and help to develop the interests of the Athletes inside IFF.

Mr. Wolmhed asked if there had been any discussion of how to solve it. The CB decided: To approve the reports and the ExCo to approach the said associations.
Ms. Bruun reported that the development of the generic WFC website project has continued, with the embedding of the game statistics for WFC 2015 website is ready, but the automatic calculation of the final standings is still missing and therefore it has not been published yet. In addition the change of the Champions Cup playing system requires that we also need new stats features for the CC, as the playing system has changed (the competition office working with the IFF Statistics program creator Mr. Mika Korhonen). IFF has a new Newsletter service provider (postiviidakko). The main advantage is that videos can be embedded directly into the newsletters. IFF changed the provider in cooperation with the SSBL, in order to have the latest technology included for the newsletter, like the videos IFF is making improvements for the IFF Mobile app, which today have around 27.000 downloads, for the CC. These are concerning the new playing system required updates. The CC 2015 mobile app, will also include Instagram in the news section with #floorball + other tournament related hashtag (#iffcc2015). There will also be the possibility to retweet, favorite tweets & instagram photos on the app directly. The aim is to increase the visibility for it in the organizing country. The IFF has through Meltwater ordered a WFC 2014 Digital Media report (Appendix 25), which shows that the WFC 2014 had a very good coverage in the digital media. The hype around our Events are increased and compared to the Women‘s handball were better in the peak, but lost overall in visibility in social media. For the WFC 2015 web site there has in cooperation with the WFC 2015 LOC been made a number of number of activation campaigns for the WFC in the Social Media channels by the IFF, which will be reported during the meeting. The CB decided: To approve the reports c) Material operations Mr. Liljelund reported that the proposal for the Material Regulation Edition 2016 has been discussed by the IFF Development Board and in order to give the Floorball Manufacturers sufficient time to react to the changes that will come in force 1st of July 2016, the changes have been discussed in the IFF ExCo in July. The IFF CB still needs to officially approve the new version of the IFF Material Regulation edition 2016. (Appendix 26) The CB decided: To approve the report and the Material Regulation Edition 2016. The IFF Material function has for three years run a test for the possibility that players longer than 190 cm can by a special permission depending on their length use a stick of a total length of 116 – 118 cm. As it has proven that these tall players have had less medical problems, the IFF material function has launched a two year program where the players can use oversized sticks for the seasons 2015-2016 and 2016-2017. If this proves to work well the Material function will propose a change of this in the Game Rules. (Appendix 27) In addition the Material function has started a follow-up to correct the problematic situation related to goalkeeper face masks, where a number of players use face mask grills that are not according to the IFF Game Rules/Material Regulation. The aim is to inform the national associations and the clubs, so that the goalkeepers proactively takes care of this issue and no other measures are needed. All newly produced face mask grills need to have an IFF plate on them after the 1st of July 2014, but a lot of goalkeepers still use old grills, which are without the IFF plate. The IFF will develop an education action plan to the goalkeepers, in order for them to be aware of the regulations. The CB decided: To approve the report. Ms. Bruun informed that IFF has been invited to give a floorball presentations at the Special Olympics European Sports Conference, October 8-9 in Austria. Ms. Bruun has been taking part in the Special Olympics study for cooperation with IF‘s. Mr. Bakke expressed that IFF needs to be in contact with the sport played in Scandinavia and Germany, which can use only t-stick players, as the Powerchair hockey players can use both t-sticks and Floorball sticks. The CB decided: To approve the reports e) Equality Mr. Liljelund reported that the preparations in relation to the WFC 2015 and the Go Girls are continuing and the IFF Office will present the proposal for the IFF Equality Guidelines for the CB meeting in December. The CB decided: To approve the report f) IFF Association Meeting 2015 Mr. Eriksson gave an to update the CB on the discussion the IFF ExCo has had concerning the time and place for the IFF Association Meeting during the WFC 2015 in Tampere.

Mr. Eriksson reported that Floorball Philippines has handed in an application that the IFF would approve the change of the Philippines IFF member association from Floorball Philippines to the newly formed Philippines Floorball Association, based on the positive development in the country. The application has been sent in with the new bye-laws and the PFA articles of incorporation have been included.
