This was reported by the President of the Federation of Poland.
57-year-old Finn debuts in the new position on November 6-8 during the European Nations Cup. Poland will play with Italy, the United Kingdom and Slovenia.
The coach, previously elected by the best trainer in the Higher League of Finland, has been heading the ACS from 2023. Last season, he won the Polish Championship and the Poland Cup with the team, and the season earlier – Poland’s Super Cup.
“It is a great honor and a challenge for me. I’m very positively tuned and ready to start. Poland has strong hockey traditions, and I hope we can return to the national team its rightful place in the world.
I am glad that the IA Division Championship will take place in Sosnovka. For players, coaching staff, officials and fans, it is great that we play at home, “he said.
The last 5 years of Poles have been trained by Slovak Robert Clabour. Under his leadership, the team went to the strongest division, but could not hold there, and last year only took fourth place in the IA Division. The national team of Ukraine overcame Poles with a score of 4: 1.
Recall that in May 2026 Poland will be a rival of “blue and yellow” for reaching the elite level. For two vouchers to Top Division will also fight the national teams of France, Kazakhstan, Japan and Lithuania.
