Henrik Breimyr, who played for Oxshott Royals from the age of 8 to 13 when he was signed up to an academy, has been selected to represent Norway in the UEFA Euro 2012 Under 19 qualifying championships later this month.

Henrik received his first call-up to represent his country towards the latter end of last season when he featured in Norway’s under-18 squad for the Slovakia Cup (he went on to play in all four games, including the final versus Denmark). He saw his talents earn him a two-year pro contract with Aldershot Town.

Manager Dean Holdsworth said, “This is a fantastic accolade for Henrik and the club. He is currently playing first team football week in, week out (on loan at Blue Square Conference South club Eastleigh) and his fitness levels are high which will benefit him. I hope that it is a great experience for him and that there are many more opportunities in the future.”

Oxshott Royals naturally wishes Henrik all the very best.
