The Swedish cross-country team said it was a dream to find Charlotte Calla a role in the organization.
Now the 34-year-old reveals that there is interest on both sides and discussions have begun.
– I’ve already started secretly working for the union, she says.
Anders Bystrom, the national team manager, had earlier expressed his desire to build on his experience and enthusiasm Charlotte Calla He was as a former elite skater.
She was one of Sweden’s most famous athletes and a role model for women.
When her active competition career now ends, Charlotte Kalla confirms that she has begun talks about assignments within the Swedish Ski Federation and the national team organisation.
– There is an ongoing dialogue with the union. We are discussing different tasks and this is very interesting to me. It’s about how to make a tangible contribution to the business, says Charlotte Calla, and we’ll come back more on that later.
An investigation into women’s skating
In fact, I have already started working in the syndicate in the project role.
– I’ve already secretly started being part of the project group. We arrange what the regrowth looks like, focusing on the skaters. We look at recruitment through stats first and foremost how it looked in SM Young and SM Junior as well as in SM Senior. How much does it move? The next step is to conduct an in-depth survey and interviews. It’s so much fun, says Charlotte Calla.
Comments on the national team brawl
She has been turbulent about the national team for next season.
Frida Karlsson, Maja, Dalkvist and Lyn Svan have opted not to train with the Sweden cross-country team.
Charlotte Cala also trained alone earlier during her career between 2016 and 2018, but has had no contact with current skaters now.
– There is not much time for me to order him now, and I would like to leave him this time. It is very difficult for me from the outside to know how the dialogue went, I would need to be more familiar. In the end, it’s about getting the best possible results for themselves, for the teams and then especially for the tournament. It’s not a huge drama, says Charlotte Calla, I hope and believe strong girls are able to fine-tune their training themselves.
