From 1st June, SIS will be resuming a full greyhound schedule of 42 fixtures per week to be held across its existing eight UK greyhound tracks plus the reintroduction to the SIS service of Towcester. Fixtures will be held behind closed doors, and initially be limited to 10 races per fixture to comply with GBGB guidance on social distancing and ensure the safety of all participants. The expectation is that this will rise over the weeks to get back to normal levels.

Initially, the fixtures will be spaced two in the morning, two in the afternoon and two in the evening to satisfy the needs of digital customers, and this schedule will form the cornerstone of the schedule when retail betting returns in the middle of June. Race times will be from 11am until 9.30pm.

Paul Witten, Product Director of SIS, said: “Our UK tracks have been undergoing trials for the last week and will continue through this week to ensure that all racing greyhounds will have completed at least two trials before racing resumes on 1st June. We’re very pleased to see a return to racing and would like to pay thanks to our tracks who have been very supportive of these new measures.

BOS urges the Ministry of Finance to take initiative to amend the Gambling Act

BOS – the Swedish Trade Association for Online Gambling – has today written to the Swedish Ministry of Finance with a request to amend the Gambling Act.

It is currently perfectly legal for unlicensed gambling companies and their subcontractors to accept Swedish gambling consumers as long as the companies avoid using the Swedish language and Swedish currency. This loophole has led to a massive influx of unlicensed gambling offers into the Swedish gambling market.

The reason this has happened is because the Government changed the application of the Gambling Act compared to how the proposal was originally presented by the Gambling License Investigation, the investigation that then formed the basis for the new Gambling Act and the Swedish reregulation in 2019. The Gambling License Investigation wanted to criminalize companies in general that lack a Swedish gambling license that still accept Swedish gambling consumers.

BOS is writing to the Ministry of Finance today with a request that the Government take the initiative to amend the Gambling Act in favor of the Gambling License Investigation’s original proposal.

“Unlicensed gambling should be eliminated in Sweden. It is completely inadequate that around a quarter of all gambling is unlicensed, not least given the total absence of consumer protection on the black gambling market. If we are to succeed in eliminating this part of the gambling market, the Gambling Act must be amended and all unlicensed gambling must be criminalized,” says Gustaf Hoffstedt, Secretary General of BOS.
