Drammen Bandy

Founded in 1997, we are a young sportsclub, and many people are doing
a lot of good work in their sparetime, to make it come out as it is.
We like to see us selves as quite pro amateurs.

Boys 17 and Boys 19 World Championships, and Nordic Championships,
did become very well organized, and so also 3 times National Championships.
All of them, among other events, has been played at Marienlyst Artificial Ice Arena.

Please visit our regular websites for Drammen Bandy at www.drammenbandy.com
