What Is Typically Included In A Contract?

This can obviously vary a lot from team to team and especially from one level to the next. I'm not going to comment on salary amount in this section, I'll talk a little bit about that when I talk about the separate levels. However, when going to Sweden as an import you can expect some sort of a salary, an apartment, sometimes a car to use for yourself or maybe to share with another import player, sometimes the team will pay for your plane ticket, health insurance will be provided for the duration of your contract, equipment including skates and sticks should be provided, the team will most likely help you to set up a bank account and a cell phone. The cost of your transfer fee will be covered. In some situations the team will also get you a part time job. This can be nice not only to make some extra money but also to have something to do as almost every player has a part time job in every level except the Elitserien. Often there will be other benefits provided to you as an import such as free lunch at a sponsoring restaurant, but this can obviously vary a lot. But they are good things to request when negotiating your contract.
