After three years, the IBU Summer Biathlon World Championships returns to Nov\u00e9 M\u011bsto na Morav\u011b. From 26th<\/sup> through 29th<\/sup> of August 2021, 12 sets of medals will be competed for in the Vyso\u010dina Arena. And fans will also be there, able to enter free of charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The championships of 2018 were a success in all respects. Therefore, the International Biathlon Union awarded Nov\u00e9 M\u011bsto na Morav\u011b the right to host them again in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThree years ago, it was great for us to see the fans flock in and create an atmosphere that was unheard-of for competitions in the summer. That\u2019s why we decided to keep it this way this year: free entry. We also consider this move a thank you to the fans who supported us these last two years, when the large majority of them did not return their tickets for the World Cup in Nov\u00e9 M\u011bsto. I look very much forward to enjoying the competitions together with them again,\u201d the President of the Czech Biathlon Union and First Vice-President of the International Biathlon Union, Ji\u0159\u00ed Hamza points out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, the epidemiologic outlook is very good in the Czech Republic, so a few thousand fans will be able to watch the competitions in the Vyso\u010dina Arena. At this point, the Chief of Competition, Vlastimil Jake\u0161 is in touch with the IBU officials on ensuring the safety of the athletes and the participating teams. \u201cWe are now preparing for the competitions to take place in a similar fashion as in the winter, with testing and assignment to various bubbles,\u201d Jake\u0161 explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The home fans may look forward to the Czech team at the full, led be World Champion Mark\u00e9ta Davidova. \u201cThis is going to be the high point of the summer season. On top of that, we may be able to race in front of our fans after so much time. It would be very nice if we managed to repeat the results of the last Nov\u00e9 M\u011bsto championships,\u201d the Sport Director and coach of the men\u2019s team, Ond\u0159ej Ryb\u00e1\u0159 recalls the streak of medals of 2018. The Czech representatives kept 13 noble metals at home then and in the Vyso\u010dina Arena largely topped the medal table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Thursday, 26th<\/sup> of August, the World Championships kicks off with the Junior Men\u2019s and Junior Women\u2019s Supersprints, which replace the Mixed Relays on the programme. On Friday, the same newly introduced, very exciting type of competition will be on the Men\u2019s and Women\u2019s schedule. The week-end, as has become classic, will belong to the Sprints and Pursuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, 25 nations have registered, along with the home team, for instance, Russia, Ukraine, Slovenia, Slovakia, Poland or Finland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
