Guildford's Karlsson has been forced to retire through a concussion sustained earlier this season in September.

Very sad news, for those that saw him play an extremely gifted player that was clearly above this league & at 24 years old had his entire career ahead of him.

Wishing David all the best for his future & a speedy road to recovery.

Concussion is a catastrophic and unpredictable injury. Particularly cruel when a young player with such potential is forced to end his career. Wishing him a full recovery and hoping he rebuild his life with another career.
