Teenager Aoife Leacy moved to Ireland at the age of six and became a bit of a sporting prodigy, but it is the very Swedish sport of ice hockey that won her heart, and she's now playing in the elite with AIK.
They play a derby against Djurgården on Feb 26 at 1300 so let's mobilise all the listeners and the entire Irish community to go watch her - link below to the tickets website!
There's also a chat with Irish-Norwegian cross-country skier Thomas Maloney Westgård who is taking on the best in the world at the Beijing Olympics and proudly wearing the green.
