2012 for Denmark (Athlete, 22 Aug 2021)

He began playing wheelchair rugby at age 15 in Copenhagen, Denmark. (Athlete, 22 Aug 2021)

"There was a long period when I did not practise sports. A physical therapist suggested wheelchair rugby because he could see that I missed being physically active. Both my parents have played a lot of handball, and my father later played football. That was why I had played both sports before. I just couldn't really keep up with the others."
