Overview
- The club cut ties with hall announcer Tom Gulliksen following his comment about Herrem’s hair during a tribute at the Oct. 21 match in Skien.
- Officials called the remark inappropriate and issued an apology, and Gulliksen also expressed regret in statements to media.
- Herrem and her coach-husband Steffen Stegavik told TV2 they accepted the apology and view the matter as resolved.
- Herrem was diagnosed with breast cancer in the summer, underwent chemotherapy with resulting hair loss, and returned to play within days of her final treatment.
- Gulliksen had served in the role for about a year and a half, and the incident drew widespread criticism in Norway before the club’s decision.
