Swedish operator Svenska Spel has extended its partnership with the Elite Soccer Ladies.
The new agreement guarantees resources for the certification and European bonus awarded to the teams that qualify for the Champions League qualifiers.
Patrik Hofbauer, president and CEO of Svenska Spel, said: “The collaboration between EFD and Svenska Spel has contributed to OBOS Damallsvenskan being one of the world's best and most entertaining leagues today.
“The new agreement enables a continued investment in the elite at the same time as we invest in the future by ensuring a professional environment in the club teams and targeted investment in talent development.
“This year we saw the result of our long-term work when OBOS Damallsvenskan delivered its third best audience average ever while we have two teams in the Champions League group stage. In addition, we saw a Swedish national team with stars from home or brought up in our series impress in the WC.”
