The TJ Lokomotiva sports complex in the Slovany district of Pilsen is one of the largest and most modern sports facilities in western Bohemia. This complex includes four sports halls, a gym, a squash, a badminton. There is a sufficient number of changing rooms with their own sanitary facilities, which ensures comfort for athletes and organizational teams.
For the needs of our International Powerchair Hockey Tournament, this facility offers the most appropriate conditions. The sports halls have a high quality game floor (sports wooden floor), wheelchair access, including accessible toilets, and changing rooms adapted for people with mobility limitations. These features meet the accessibility and comfort requirements for all tournament participants, which is a key aspect when organising parasport events.
As part of the Pilsen Powerchair Open 2025, matches will take place in two sports halls of the complex. Thanks to its state-of-the-art infrastructure and adaptation to the needs of people with disabilities, TJ Lokomotiva becomes the ideal venue for the organisation of this prestigious international event. Moreover, this event will contribute to the promotion of disability sport and support the efforts of the city of Pilsen.

There will be no speed control of the electric sports wheelchair at the tournament. We believe in the game of "fair play". There will be no classification system. A team may start a match with a lower number of players while maintaining rule number 607. However, they are not entitled to any concessions. Rule 607 on the number of players will remain. No Accreditation card is required. Personal assistants or the coach may open the boundaries when substituting players.
In the case that two or more teams have the same number of points at the end of all group games, the following ancillary criteria will determine the final standings:
- Higher number of points scored in the PRELIMINARY group.
- Goal difference in the PRELIMINARY group.
- Higher number of goals scored in the PRELIMINARY group.
- Higher goal difference in all matches in the PRELIMINARY group.
- Higher number of goals scored in the PRELIMINARY group.
