Concern after the Bråthen . riots
The meeting came after a large number of supporters recently announced that they would consider their cooperation with the association.
The meeting was attended by, among others, General Secretary Engfield Britten Berg, Ski Chairman Eric Rosti and Chairman of the Jump Committee Alf Torey Hogg.
They met with representatives of sponsors LO, Nammo, Eterni, Help and Lundin.
The background to the meeting is therefore the handling of the case against Clas Brede Bråthen. The current Jump Manager Bråthen agreement expires in April 2022, but The Norwegian Ski Association and the Jumping Committee will not extend the agreement.
It does not seem possible to find a solution to the conflict, and National team coach Alexander Stockel reacted forcefully to not allowing the sporting director to continue.
After the meeting, he was more positive.
– I think the meeting was positive. Now the next step is that there will be a meeting with Clas around the table, where he can find out his version, says Stöckl, who says he thinks sponsors want to use Clas Brede Bråthen.
Personally, I would like to appoint Klass Brady Brathin as sporting director, he confirms.
Consider appointments
