17 October 2023 at 10:41 Ingebrigtsen in the national team: Part of European Championship investment Filip Ingebrigtsen is in the national team in the so-called European Championship team. The Olympic group, of which he is not a part, gets a little extra support in terms of sport. Henrik Ingebrigtsen is also part of this group. There are a total of 22 athletes selected for the elite team. Five of these are para-athletes. – We still have faith in Filip as an athlete, says sports director Erlend Slokvik. – We have had a long-term goal and a plan for Filip with a view to the Olympics. We see that he still has potential, says Slokvik. This two-part team selection is based on which championships the management believes the athletes can perform in. This became clear when the Norwegian Athletics Federation presented the elite team in athletics for the coming season on Tuesday morning. The national team consists of a number of athletes in various disciplines. – There are already ten athletes who have qualified for the Olympics, says sports director Erlend Slokvik during the presentation of the elite team. The biggest tension was linked to Filip Ingebrigtsen, who has put a weak season behind him. Filip Ingebrigtsen was one of the world’s best middle-distance runners from 2016 and for several years to come. Among other things, he has bronze from the WC in 2017 and EC gold in 2016. In recent years, he has struggled. Among other things, he did not make it to this year’s WC. It was announced in advance that the Ingebrigtsen brothers would not attend the presentation of the elite teams. Sports manager Erlend Slokvik also made it clear that the association would not answer questions about Gjert Ingebrigtsen being denied accreditation for the indoor WC and EC next season. Ingebrigtsen has obtained a lawyer after it became clear that he, as Narve Gilje Nordås’ coach, was refused accreditation.
