Bandy Premiere with sadness and joy – Helsingborgs Dagblad

But it was is not necessary to set up Friday’s elite series premiere. Gripen President Stellan Edström told me before the game that the team managers did their best to prepare the players.

– It is important for the players so as to honor the victims. We had a gathering last night with the team and talked about the incident. We talk a lot about what happened, it is they who know families affected, he said.

Gripen team captain Linus Rönnqvist said events affected both him and his team-mates, but that you tried to download as usual.

– I have probably the largest impact on the personal level, but it had felt awful wherever something this horrible happens, he said to TT .

The clubs decided to before the game to make a joint statement that the manifestation against hatred and violence. Before rejecting read announcer up the statement in which the club’s players and officials sent their thoughts to both sufferers and relatives – and promised to continue working towards hatred and violence and for the community of people.

– There we are in bandy can do is well to ensure that invite as many as possible to our community, said Rönnqvist.

To bandy family agrees together was manifested by the home side’s supporters traveled a banner where they showed their support for Trollhattan while renouncing racism. And finally got the party started – at least in the stands – as the home goals fell into. Edsbyn eventually won 6-2, which, however, was of

secondary importance at this premiere evening.

– The most important thing now is to show that racism is something that we are not doing. In bandy, everyone is welcome, said Edsbyns captain Jonas Edling.
