Involvement in Sports
Niels and Harald played as footballers, and the two brothers played a number of amateur matches for the Copenhagen-based Akademisk Boldklub, with Niels in goal and Harald in defence. There is, however, no truth in the oft-repeated claim that Niels emulated Harald by playing for the DenmarK national team. Ernest Bohr was a 1948 Olympic field hockey player.
