The Swiss Ice Hockey Federation has dismissed Patrick Fischer from his position as national team coach. The decision came a month before the home World Championship and after Fischer admitted to using a fake vaccination certificate against coronavirus during the 2022 Winter Olympic Games in Beijing. SITA ↗ sport.sk ↗
Fischer traveled to the Beijing Olympics with a forged vaccination certificate, which he publicly admitted in recent days. Based on this admission, the Swiss Ice Hockey Federation reacted immediately by removing the coach from his position. In its statement, the federation stated that Fischer failed to uphold the values that underpin trust and violated the principles on which the national team is built. lidovky.cz ↗ sme.sk ↗
Fischer's dismissal came just a few days before the Swiss national ice hockey team's scheduled matches against Slovakia in Topoľčany. New coach Cadieux is expected to appear behind the Swiss bench and will already lead the team in these preparatory matches. The federation's decision thus leaves the Swiss hockey environment without coaching leadership just a month before an important home competition. Fischer's case caused considerable surprise in the hockey community, as he was regarded as a successful coach who had led the national team to a high representative level. teraz.sk ↗ sport.pravda.sk ↗
