Anna Devik was selected and returned to the national team.
or?
– I haven’t made a final decision yet on whether I will be part of the national team. So far, I’ve just been taken out, she says.
Anna Davic She resigned from the national team before the Olympic season, and with former national team skier Victor Thorne as coach, she still goes to Beijing.
She described the investment as “the best thing I’ve done”. But when the national team manager Anders Bystrom introduced the next season’s team, Anna Davek returned to the squad again.
But there is a firecracker. You haven’t said yes to the place yet.
After a very difficult leadership during previous periods in the national team, you want to find an individual approach. It says in a longer written comment that the matter is still being discussed.
– I haven’t made a final decision yet on whether I will be part of the national team. So far, I have just been selected and the coaches and I are currently having a conversation about what the national team’s approach might look like for me. The most important thing for me is that I keep improving on the ski track and feel good at the same time. So I hope that together, the national team and I find the best way from here so that I can continue to develop as much as I did last year when I trained on my own, she says.
Then the decision can be made
It is clear that Davek would like to find her way into the national team environment again.
– I would very much like to be part of the national team and spend more time with the best skaters in the world! Being part of the national team also means physical and financial security, which is also an important piece of the puzzle for success, she says.
When should you find a solution?
– As soon as possible I wish! I outlined for them what I needed to be part of the national team and continue to develop in skating. So when they choose whether or not they want to meet me, I will be able to make the decision.
Anders Bystrom thinks Davek himself should now consider whether this is the right way to go.
– Things have gone well for her outside of the team, but looking at last year’s season, she deserves it, he says.
