Ice hockey: Ombudsperson Achitz takes over match patronage for Sabres vs. Bolzano

The Sabres Women's Hockey Team played against the league leaders from Bolzano in St. Pölten on 1 November. Ombudsperson Bernhard Achitz, who is responsible for health and social affairs as well as sport, took over the match patronage for this game in the Elite Women's Hockey League.

Achitz reminded the audience that anyone who feels they have been treated "unsportingly" by an Austrian authority can file a complaint with the Austrian Ombudsman Board.

The Sabres, founded in Vienna in 1999 and now based in St. Pölten, are Austria's most successful team in women's ice hockey. The Sabres were also able to hold their own against Bolzano without conceding a goal, winning the match 3-0 on 1 November.
