Coat of arms returning to Czech ice hockey jerseys

The Czech national coat of arms is due to return to the jerseys of the country’s ice hockey team after five years. The Czechs will line up in their new jerseys for the first time at the Karjala Cup in Sweden and Finland next week.

The president of the Czech Hockey Union, Alois Hadamczik, said on Wednesday that he had promised to bring back the coat of arms when he was installed and had delivered on that pledge.
