08/09/2010 – At the press conference in the Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen Michael MAZE was elected as a player of the year in Denmark. Jonathan GROTH gained the title as a talent of the year. Unfortunately at the same occasion reigning champion MAZE announced his withdrawal from the 2010 LIBHERR European Championships in Ostrava.

Michael MAZE is very sorry not to defend his title. “I hope soon I will be back but now it is not possible to play at the highest level due to a knee injury. Probably it is a virus inflammation.”

The mens team will be composed by Allan BENTSEN Kasper STERNBERG Jonathan GROTH and Christian KJONGSGAARD. Coach Peter SARTZ said: “Without Machael MAZE we will have to change the target a little bit. With Maze we would have ambitions to play for medals. Realistically we will not be able to do this without Michael MAZE now”.
