In March of 2018, sixteen kids, three coaches, and a General Manager made their way to northern Sweden for the 2018 15 Boys Bandy World Championships.
While playing the top players from Sweden, Russia, and Finland was no easy challenge for this group from Minneapolis, Minnesota...they rose to the challenge and like all USA teams....they never quit.
With each game the boys got better and in the final third place game against Finland they lost 7-2.
More than the games, the lifelong friendships made with friends that played bandy was the highlight of the trip.
USA Goalkeeper Konrad Kausch was awarded the top goalie of the tournament.
