Last season, Örebro Hockey J18 two points from going on to the J18 Allsvenskan. For the season 2014/15 will continue building on the junior organization when J18 training harder than ever to reach the J18 Allsvenskan.
On the side we find goalkeeper Jonathan Frykholm and Isaac Mantler (New Örebro Hockey U16).
- A really exciting goalkeeper page. Isaac was with at the regional camps for the national team last season, and Jonathan was with the J18 last year and has taken big strides, says Örebro Hockey Junior Manager Jens Gustafsson.
On the reverse side, we find, among other things, four new from our U16 team and outside will include Tom Lundgren (Skövde) and Emil Karlsson (Arvika).
- Even the reverse side is really exciting this season. A more skillful game back side than before. Tom Lundgren and Zikmund Mroz was with the national team's 30-man squad last season.
On the forward side we see both a little more familiar names and some new. We see, among other things, Glenn Gustafsson (Haninge), Marcus Seidl (SDE) and the English great talent Samuel Duggan (Bracknell).
- A really strong forward side. We have received good players on 98-year class for our hockeygym. Several of the players have already known last season at J18 games.
- Anton Johansson was born in 1999, but was already a regular at J18 last season. A great talent from Örebro. Samuel Duggan, who is one of England's greatest talents ever, choose to come here to Örebro Hockey is obviously really fun.
Örebro Hockey's J18 team is continuing to invest and train to reach the J18 Allsvenskan. Junior Manager Jens Gustafsson is very happy over the development of the junior side.
- It's very fun to top player in Sweden Örebro Hockey looks like a really good option for further development. This year we had between 400-500 applicants for our hockeygym, we have a maximum of 14 places.
What do you think has contributed to this development?
- They see that our young players get a chance in Örebro Hockey's A-team. Our best players from our own U16 team are now choosing to stay at home. Previously it has been difficult to get the to stay in Örebro with the looks that today we are at least the same level as the other SHL-law, concludes Jens Gustafsson.
