World Cup medalist Halvarsson calls for Swedish skiers’ salaries to be doubled
MOSCOW, April 11 – RIA Novosti. Swedish skier Kalle Halvarsson, a three-time World Championship medalist, has called for a doubling of national team salaries.
The average annual salary in Sweden is SEK 440,000 (approximately 38.5 thousand Euros). Skiers of the Swedish national team receive 200,000 crowns.
Lars Oeberg, director of cross-country skiing at the Swedish Ski Association, noted that he is aware of the dissatisfaction with salaries, but that doubling the payouts will not work.
“We’re working long-term to move forward. But how quickly we can do that depends on income, of course. 400k? No, not that much. But we’re looking into the matter. But how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much and how much?” “It’s impossible to say right now,” Oeberg said.
