Evelin Stockom

My family has a legacy of excellent card players, thanks to our ancestors' time in Southeast Asia, where they picked up a range of card games. Two of my favorites are Laad (or Get Away) and Siv (or Sweep). While Sweep is more challenging to master, Laad is relatively simple, and the laughter it brings can be heard from miles away! Every year, when the Stockom family used to reunite for gatherings and festivals, cards are a must. We're avid card collectors, and we even have a unique deck made from rocks. However, after my grandfather passed away, the traditions began to fade. I'll always remember him teaching me the complicated rules of Sweep with patience. I'm determined to keep the traditions alive!

Fencing finds it's origins in ancient civilizations, from swordplay dating back to Egypt, Greece, and Rome civilizations. Ancient Egypt left evidence as tomb paintings showcasing swordplay methods and techniques. The modern version emerged in Europe during the Middle Ages, when the first schools opened up in Italy and Spain. The French developed the foil, épée, and sabre techniques, while the Italians introduced the rapier. Fencing became one of the popular dueling sport in the nobility and eventually into a competitive sport, with the first Olympic Games featuring fencing in 1896.

Thank you everyone for joining in! This is your host and dearest broom buddy, Eve, on the mic! We're just starting the Annual Broom Race here in Sweden! This year's race not only includes a treacherous course with rocky cliffs, but also a dragon reservation! That's right, folks! Our riders will have to navigate through dragons! Gearing up on the starting line are some of the finest broom riders in the century, each with their shiny, modified, and classy brooms! But it's not just the broom that wins a race; it's also the agility and the smartness of our riders who lead them and their countries to victory! This year's race officiator is none other than our beloved Swedish Minister of Magic, who will be firing the command to begin the race any moment now!
