Alf Engen – Soccer StarBy Roy WebbJust about anyone who has strapped on a pair of skis has heardof Alf Engen. What many may not know of him, however, isthat Alf was also famous as a soccer star. Soccer was a majorsport in Utah in the years before World War II. In 1922, VictorJohannsen, a Norwegian immigrant, founded a soccer teamcomposed of Scandinavian immigrants, called the Vikings.It wasn’t until the Engens joined the Vikings in the 1930s,however, that the team became a powerhouse in Utah soccer.Alf was already a celebrity soccer player in his native Norway,and came to the Vikings with all the skills to make the team achampionship club. A center midfielder, he quickly stood outas the most versatile player on the Vikings team. The centermid is traditionally the team captain, the playmaker, the onewho both sets up the goals and coordinates the defense(think David Beckham), and Alf fulfilled that role admirably.He could score from 30 yards out with either foot, and wasknown for his ability to head the ball into the net. Alf led theVikings to their first Utah State Championship in 1932, and theteam repeated the feat under his leadership for the next twoyears. Nor was Alf the only skier who stood out on the soccerpitch; his brothers Sverre, who played goalkeeper, and Karre, aright halfback, were also members of the Vikings, as were skijumpers Einar Fredbo, Halvar Hvalstad, and Oskar Andreason.All through the 1930s, Alf’s picture appeared on the sportspages of local newspapers almost as often for his soccerexploits as for his ski jumping championships. An article inthe Salt Lake Telegram about a 1932 game against the OgdenBlue Stars noted that “Alf Engen ran wild in the second [half]to score the ‘hat trick’ [three goals in one game] and added afourth for good measure.” Alf also played on all-star teams thatplayed visiting clubs from California, Montana, and other states,and sometimes traveled to play.Soccer in the 1930s wasfar different than it is today.Grass fields were a rarity;they were commonly dirt,cinders, or even blacktop.Alf and the Vikings playedin heavy, ankle lengthboots imported fromEurope that featured ahard toe with hobnails fortraction. There were nosubstitutions; you playedthe entire 90 minutes,unless you got hurt.Injuries were common, andAlf was hurt on more thanone occasion. Through itall, however, Alf displayedthe same sportsmanshipthat made him one of themost beloved athletes inAmerican sports history.Soccer star, Alf EngenBy the late 1930s, Alf’s ski career had come to take on moreimportance, and he finally left the soccer pitch for the slopes.Today, his career as a soccer star is all but forgotten, save bythe members of the Vikings S.C. (the club is still in existenceand still fields teams). The only tangible reminders of Alf’scareer as a soccer player are the newspaper clippings in theAlf Engen scrapbooks, part of the Utah Ski Archives, and theStrand Trophy, on display in the trophy case at the Alf Engen SkiHistory Museum.Engen Brothers mural unveiled early January at the renovated Utah State Capitol BuildingThe Engen Brothers mural, painted by Utah artist DavidKoch, is proudly featured in the House of RepresentativesChamber in the newly renovated Utah State Capitol. Thepainting depicts the Engen brothers constructing the takeoff at storied Ecker Hill in the early 1930s. The backgroundfeatures a miner, his cabin, and a portion of Alta’s ruggedDevils Castle peak, signifying the transition from miningto skiing in the early part of the 20th century. The younggirl standing with Alf Engen on the take-off represents thesignificant impact ski schools, such as the Deseret NewsSki School, had on the growth of ski sport in Utah.Alf Engen Ski Museum Foundation3

In MemoriamJack Hamlin WalkerBy Alan K. EngenAs 2008 began, Utah skisport lost anotherpioneer and avid lifetime enthusiast. JackHamlin Walker passed away, at age 92, onJanuary 28, 2008 of natural causes. Jack isremembered for his ski jumping exploitson Ecker Hill in the 1930s as well as hiscompetitive spirit. Along with his close buddy, Vern Walker, Jackactively participated in locally sponsored alpine events for nearlyeight decades.Jack made many contributions to Utah skiing. He was the founderof the Mount Olympus Ski Club that was active in the late 1930sand into the mid 1940s. He possessed a rich sense of humor,great story telling ability, and a true passion for the sport ofskiing. I will never forget his comment to me when he was oncereflecting on his days of ski flying on Ecker Hill. He said, “Alan,those were the barnstormer days, when men were men, andmost were crazy as hell. I particularly loved the Norwegians. Theywere my heros! In fact, for a time, I even changed my last nameto Reklaw (the reverse of his last name Walker) since I thought ithad a more Scandinavian ring to it.”Well done, Jack. You will long be remembered for playing asignificant part in Utah’s rich ski history.Director’s LetterBy Connie NelsonSummer is in full swing here atthe Alf Engen Ski Museum and theJoe Quinney Winter Sports Center.As Scott mentioned, our guestnumbers continue to increase,due in part to Summit County’sgenerous 1% Restaurant Taxmarketing grant.This year our Education Programsaw over 1,650 students, teachers and parents from24 schools.
