Tyresö's National Team Introduction: Andrew Preston

Before The international exhibition classic - Sweden vs. Finland, we'd like to introduce the players from Tyresö who've been selected to represent their country on the 3rd of October.

In this particular case, a player and recent defensive coordinator for Tyresö will take on the role as Defensive Coordinator for team Sweden - Andrew Preston !

Andrew coached and coordinated the best defense in the Swedish Superseries in back to back seasons (2013-2014).  In his first season as coordinator in Sweden (highest division), his defense only gave up 4.9 points per game! Andrew will now apply that defense with Sweden's top caliber players at his disposal.

In addition to being a successful coordinator, Andrew has also been one of the most explosive import players in Sweden over the last three years. His resume will attest to that.
