No new lweagues this year. Hockeyettan's unlikely to be high on the priority list when we do add a new one, because it poses a number of difficulties - the huge number of teams (and their affiliated/junior teams) and the research and database requirements those would have, regional-based divisions that need annual realignment, relegation system that requires games against non-playable teams from Hockeytvåan, and a complex season format. It's more likely the next playable leagues will be from countries that don't have a playable league yet.
