Young and exciting A national team to Denmark
– We have agreed with Latvia and Denmark that we will all present younger versions of the national teams for these matches, says national team manager Petter Thoresen about the gathering in Esbjerg from 9-14 November.
– We see the importance of trying out slightly younger players, and need to put other guys than the ones we usually see, he adds.

The selected squad, which you will find at the bottom of this case, consists of as many as 17 players from the Fjordkraft league. Many of these have now been taken out for their first gathering with the A national team.
– These are young, talented boys who have stood out and done their job well here at home. It will be exciting to see the international at a level with a slightly higher speed, the national team manager continues.
Thoresen refers to this as an exciting project, and taking out will have a motivating effect on the many new players who now get the chance to show themselves.
– By taking out a team like this, we want to send signals to our younger players that we follow them, and that they deliver are noticed. Hopefully, it can give them the motivation to continue reducing the extra work required, he concluded.
