Sigvard "Kallinge" Pettersson (1928–2002) was in the 1950s a celebrated Swedish footballer and a centre forward in the classical 2-3-5 formation, who during his career in Landskrona BoIS represented the club at 312 occasions and scored 297 goals. An average of 0.95 goals per game. Through the first 99 years of Landskrona BoIS' history, only Harry "Hacke" Dahl and Sonny Johansson have scored more goals for the club. His nickname "Kallinge" came from the small Blekinge village where he grew up. During the later part of his many years in Landskrona BoIS he played together with Hasse "HP" Persson in the front.[1] In the 1980s he was running a smaller tobacco shop in Landskrona. He died in 2002 at age 73.[2]
