Afula in Israel was due to host the competition from October 15 to 22 this year before pulling out.

It was then scheduled to be held in Lahti in January before being moved to June due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The Organising Committee has also published its COVID-19 safety guidelines for the tournament.

According to the guidelines, teams must be prepared for additional costs of possible testing, while the Finnish Government demands a 72-hour quarantine period before the event.

Teams will also be asked to provide their own face masks which must be worn when not on the field of play during the tournament.

The IBSA previously said a "goalball bubble" would be established at the Pajulahti Olympic and Paralympic Training Centre following the three-day isolation period and a round of COVID-19 tests.
