An unnamed coach arrived in Seefeld by car on Wednesday. After the test, he waited for the result at the hotel. “He has a single room and did not come into contact with the team. Competitors are therefore admitted to the race after negative tests,” Tomáš Slavík, sports director of the Nordic combined section of the ski association, told ČTK.
The main coach of the associations is Marek Šablatura, his assistants are Vladimír Šmíd and for the jump the former Polish representative in jumping Robert Mateja.
