Öresundliga continues against Holte IF

We return to practice this week to prepare for a string of away matches against top league opponents, opening this Saturday with an Öresundliga match in Denmark.

Holte's roster includes an interesting mix of young talented Danish players combined with relatively seasoned foreign players. Three of their starters were members of the U19 team that earned bronze at this year's Nordic Championships, so we can expect a challenging and fun match this weekend.

Each time we play against the Danish teams, we get a chance to train on new tempos and offensive variations that we are not used to seeing in the Swedish Elitserien. This will be a great opportunity for us to work on some details we hope to have better control over when we meet Elitserien opponents Hylte/Halmstad and Svedala the end of this month.

Our last meeting against Holte IF occurred in 2014 during the Nordic Championship semifinals, resulting in a 3-0 victory to GVK (28-26, 29-27, 25-22).
