International Ice Hockey Federation suspended Armenia indefinitely

The International Ice Hockey Federation has suspended Armenia indefinitely due to eligibility issues with their men’s national team that participated in the 2010 IIHF World Championship Division III Group B in Yerevan, Armenia.

The member was on probation due to eligibility issues in the past. The Armenians used several ineligible players and are suspected of having submitted wrong information about players of American-Armenian double citizenship.

The results of all games involving the Armenian team do not count for the tournament.

A final decision will be taken as soon as the investigation is fully completed.
