"It was a tough battle, but we felt we had to do something and so we started a fundraiser," says Hille / Åbyggeby's chairman Bengt Mickelsson.
No one could believe in April 2017 when Oskar Lindblom was in the lead of Brynäs in the final game that he would later suffer from skeletal cancer. And there have been strong feelings after the message and manifestations in both Sweden and the US. But it was in Hille that it all started when Oskar lived next door to Hille / Åbyggeby's chairman Bengt Mickelsson.
- He has been with him since he was so big, says Bengt Mickelsson and puts out his hand and shows. He played country hockey here outside and has been with the club since childhood. And we can help, we do, but it is very emotional.
"One for all, all for one"Both Oskar Lindblom and his parents who live next door to Bengt Mickelsson have approved the collection.
- They said okay and it felt right anytime. Because on Hille / Åbyggeby's logo it says "One for all, everyone for one", it sits like a slam today.
