In Värmekyrkan in Norrköping, concerts, parties and conferences are usually arranged, but during the corona pandemic, the venue has mostly been empty.

Uno Appelgren Friedner is one of those who usually arrange things in the room and he thought it was a shame that it should just be left unused, so he has bought a paddle court that has now been built on site.

Spaniards travel around and build courses

He got inspiration for the idea when courses were set up in the Globe in Stockholm.

The three Spaniards who built the track in Norrköping said when they packed up on Thursday that their company built 400 tracks in the past year, most in Sweden but also many in Dubai and Germany.

In the clip below, Uno Appelgren Friedner talks about why he is making this bet and what he will do with the course when the pandemic is over:
