A familiar face guides the U19 fortunes of Denmark

| American Football | 03/29/2024

Kasper Skyum might be a new face at the helm when Denmark travels to Kristianstad to take on Sweden this weekend in the opening game of the IFAF U19 European Championships, but his presence has been strong in the national team since 2007.

Kasper has made the natural progression from playing for his country to joining the coaching staff and now taking over as head coach. His most immediate task is to beat Sweden since such success has proved elusive the past three times the Scandinavian rivals have met at the junior level. They kick off at 2pm CET on Sunday, March 31, at the Kristianstads IP.

“I think from a tactical and a technical point we can give them a fight, but what I saw the last time we played them is that we kind of ran out of energy in the in the last part of the game,” says Kasper.
