The Klaukkala Open business series competitions took place on Saturday, September 10. At Maaniitu school in Nurmijärvi. Taekwondo athletes were represented by Plum Kopisto, Victoria Hentunen, Sofia Sarala, Bella Buuri, Luca Leskinen and Aino Kortelainen under their coach Essi Labart.
Aino grabbed the brightest medals with both hands, winning the blue-bellied lynx series, the blue-bellied hobbyist series and the skills competition series of her peers. Also on the boys' side, the victory of the skills competition went to the Taekwondo athletes when Plum Kopisto took home the pot. In the cadet boys' series, Plum won bronze. In the lynx pairs, Bella and Victoria shone by grabbing the gold and almost managed to repeat the trick in the group series with Sofia against a group of adults. In the end, the girls had to settle for silver with a tickling 0.02 point difference. Bella's medal haul grew even more with a gold medal from the greenish Ilves. Luca, on the other hand, won bronze in the blue-bellied lynx series.
Coach Essi was very satisfied with the team's performance. Hard training again produced the much-needed result! From here, it is easy to continue towards the next shards.
Congratulations to all medalists!
