Christian Olsson, program host also for Sveriges Radio's "Karlavagnen", gets 50,000 kronor which he will share with a sports association chosen by himself. The choice fell on the Gothenburg club Sandarna BK – where he himself has been both player and leader and where his dad was also a member.

"Sandarna operates in the heart of Majorna and in a socio-economically vulnerable area. I know that income, like in many associations, is always a scarce commodity" says Christian Olsson in a press release.

Behind the prize are Folkspel and Bingolotto who want to highlight a person, association or organization that "operates in a context that Leif 'Loket' Olsson would have appreciated".
