I got a phone call yesterday from a # i did not recognize. The man on the phone introduced himself as Andreas Jemn and explained that he was the sports reporter for the Kristianstadbladet. The newspaper her in Kristianstad. We spent about 10 mins chatting answering his questions and then their photographer came out to our practice and took some photos. Today i woke up to a text from one my players asking me if i had seen the article in today's newspaper. Here it is:
Here is a translated version from the Internet. Swedish does not translate very smoothly to English so a lot of the pronouns are wrong and there are some things that you kind of have to read between the lines.

From San Diego to Kristianstad, here is the Predator's new super coach. John Walker comes directly from the American university football. Now he is giving back Kristianstad stardom. "Here's ambition and ability," says Walker.
Last year, missed Kristianstad Predators advancement.
But this year the club will be better prepared and loaded to take the step up.
- Super Series is the goal of the season, and we have a good team, says John Walker .
He came to Sweden a month ago. After several years as coach of the USA , he was eager to try something new.
- I have been practicing for 13 years and a friend who had been in Austria told me about side europlayers.com , says Walker.
There were several European clubs who were looking players and coaches from the USA.
- I saw Kristianstad Predators and started talking with Tyson Guillen , and now it feels just right, says Walker.
He has strong track record at the American professional circus and myself have played the university football in California .
- I'm the center of the University of San Diego and then I coach and have been doing it ever since, says Walker.
He has received a record short time for adaptation to Sweden.
- I came a month ago, it has not been much time for other than training and work, says Walker.
He goes from being a trainer in sunny California in a U.S. giant sports to bet their career on a dwarf sport in Sweden.
- I think it's exciting football in Sweden, more and more, this is a very interesting task, says Walker.
Tyson Guillen am very pleased with his American enlistment. Predators are so excited to decorate up an entire salary to his trainer.
