I tillegg har han 2 interceptions og 1 forced fumble. I finalen spilte han mesteparten av kampen med store smerter og gips❗️ For å spille defence trenger man en helt egen mentalitet og denne spillerens passion for spillet er så enorm, at han skal slutte å spille, når ting ikke går hans vei, men vårt defence blir bedre hver gang denne spilleren er på banen.

From switching D-end to Linebacker back inn 2022, to establishing himself as the #1 LB inn the country, it has been a dominant journey for Atle. He led the entire Eliteseries inn tackles, Int’s and was top 3 inn FF’s and Pass Brups. He was the heart of a Defence that led inn almost every single major defensive category this year❗️ It also earned him attention from abroad as he signed his first pro-contract and became Defensive Rookie of The Year with the Berlin Rebels🏆 For a guy that has only played the position for a limited amount of time, his developement has been nothing short of incredible and we cannot wait to see how it goes from here.

Årets MVP var ikke et lett valg, men at denne spilleren endte opp med prisen ville ikke hatt høye odds før sesongen. Årets MVP er alltid på trening, og pusher de andre og seg selv til det ytterste. I år endte det med NM-gull, og mye er takket være denne spilleren som scoret to touchdowns. Som en bidragsyter på begge sider av ballen, er dette virkelig en imponerende sesong. Spilleren er nummer to i både tacklinger og antall rushing yards og atpåtil tredje i receivingyards. Denne spilleren får virkelig til alt han prøver på❗️
Årets MVP U17 er Arin Nordlys Enersen⭐️

This year’s MVP is someone we had never seen take the next step up and dominante inn the Norwegian league. Always had been a great talent as a young player, which led him to New Mexico Military. There he switched to Defensive End and from there his dominant run started. Leading the team inn sacks as they won the Jucco National Championship. Edy came home after a ACL injury and most people inn the country still remembered him as a receiver. This season he was arguably the most dominant player at a position inn the country, imports included. He put up inn 7 games: 54 tackles, 24 Tfl’s, 12 sacks And showed everyone inn the country that he was the clear cut Nr.1 Defensive Player inn The country❗️

We’re are all so proud off Edy and his journey inn life and inn fotball. With that, we are very happy to announce:
