The ALTER TABLE statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint

by

Why does add a foreign key to the tblDomare table result in this error?

The ALTER TABLE statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint “FK__tblDomare__PersN__5F7E2DAC”. The conflict occurred in database “almu0004”, table “dbo.tblBana”, column ‘BanNR’.

Code

CREATE TABLE tblDomare
(PersNR VARCHAR (15) NOT NULL,
fNamn VARCHAR (15) NOT NULL,
eNamn VARCHAR (20) NOT NULL,
Erfarenhet VARCHAR (5),
PRIMARY KEY (PersNR));

INSERT INTO tblDomare (PersNR,fNamn,eNamn,Erfarenhet)
Values (6811034679,'Bengt','Carlberg',10);

INSERT INTO tblDomare (PersNR,fNamn,eNamn,Erfarenhet)
Values (7606091347,'Josefin','Backman',4);

INSERT INTO tblDomare (PersNR,fNamn,eNamn,Erfarenhet)
Values (8508284163,'Johanna','Backman',1);

CREATE TABLE tblBana
(BanNR VARCHAR (15) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (BanNR));

INSERT INTO tblBana (BanNR)
Values (1);

INSERT INTO tblBana (BanNR)
Values (2);

INSERT INTO tblBana (BanNR)
Values (3);

ALTER TABLE tblDomare
ADD FOREIGN KEY (PersNR)
REFERENCES tblBana(BanNR);
