Cross-country skiing | Lillehammer: Sweden selects 25 athletes… including prodigy Alvar Myhlback

Cross-country skiing: Alvar Myhlback called up for first World Cup outside Sweden

Last season, Swedish cross-country skiing prodigyAlvar Myhlback was selected for three World Cup stages. Each time, however, it was within Sweden’s borders, thanks to the national quota.

According to an announcement made by the Swedish Ski Association on Tuesday lunchtime, the Lager 157 Ski Team member will be discovering the world circuit outside his home country this weekend.

This is because he has been called up for the Lillehammer skiathlon (Norway) scheduled for Sunday. Evelina Crüsell, who was also crowned world junior champion last winter, will also be taking part, this time in the individual skateboard event on Friday.

In addition, all the kingdom’s stars have been selected, starting with Ebba Andersson, Frida Karlsson, Calle Halfvarsson, Edvin Anger, William Poromaa, Linn Svahn, Jonna Sundling, Emma Ribom and Maja Dahlqvist.
