Biography

Wilhelm Larsson was a goalie who played at the 1936 Winter Olympics in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. His only other international competition came at the 1935 World Championships where he played well, which led to him being selected for the Swedish Olympic team in 1936. Because the 1936 Winter Olympics doubled as a European Championship, Larsson earned a bronze medal at the 1936 Europeans. His career lasted from 1930-44 and was spent entirely with Karlbergs BK.
