The captain of the hockey team ordered: We send a significant part of the prizes from the World Cup to the people of South Moravia
“I would like to thank Captain Jan Kovář, who contacted us this morning with the fact that the players will give up a significant part of the World Cup rewards in favor of the affected municipalities and to send these funds to their accounts,” said the president of Czech Hockey Tomáš Král.
“Members of the implementation team also joined the initiative in the morning, and we will send further support from Czech hockey funds, so that the total help will reach one million crowns,” Král added.
