Boork looking forward:

– Medal now in Malmö and final of the upcoming Olympics. Jaq think you should have high goals otherwise it is not serious, and it’s exciting for an old fox having the carrots in front of him.

The year before Sochi thought Boork that the ladies were too poorly trained.

– Now they’re about to get a better living in matches and training. The standard of the national series are great. And internationally, there has tajtat to between countries, although the United States and Canada of course is really good. Looking at the teams playing to get an eye-opener.
