Game. Champion Carter Camper becomes more and more Swedish with each passing season.
He tries to learn Swedish through the Babblarna children’s program.
– My son Cooper and I watch them together. I’m starting to understand Swedish, but I’m finding it more difficult to spread the words, says North America.
This is Carter Camper’s third season to play for Lexand in the SHL and he continues to be the leading player to do so for the Valley team.
Against Skellefteå on Thursday night came the first goal of the season, perhaps a little unexpectedly and out of nowhere.
Coach Bjorn Hellqvist opted to wash the chains with a 0-0 draw and put Kamber with Kaley Ostman and Carter Ashton. And it had an effect.
“Just the right speed in Babblerna”
With 87 seconds left, Matt Kaito and Kaley Ostman found Carter Camper in the attacking area and Camper put the puck into the cross.
– Very nice. I may have been a little late in celebrating the goal, but I felt very relieved, he said of the goal. It was the only goal in the match.
The Camper family began to turn into playful and fashionable people. Camper is a large family with three children, two adults and an older typical dog. The eldest son is fluent in Swedish and Carter struggles alongside one-year-old Cooper.
– We check the gossips together. The speed of the program is sufficient and I pick up a few words. It’s a special program and we don’t have anything like it in Canada. But Cooper loves it. I try to keep up as much as possible. I understand Swedish when it’s a little slow. But you have trouble getting the words out. I hope he comes, he says after the match against Skellefteå.
Like my second home
Babblarna is a Swedish children’s program that got its present form in 2006. In Babblarna we meet the main characters Babba, Diddi, Bobbo, Bibbi, Dadda and Doddo in their life adventures.
He would like to become more Swedish and would like to be able to talk and communicate with the players in Nurit.
– Lexand is like my second home and everyone is so cute. I am also well recognized and people cheer me on. One day I want to be able to speak to them in Swedish. He works on it, he says.
