Movement sets in training

The spring day started with poom training under Petter's guidance. After lunch, the trainees were divided into level groups led by Petteri, Pauli and Sampo. About 50 people participated in the training,

Lunch Korean style

Jari Seppälä and assistant chef Kostiainen prepared Bulgogi, which was served with Kimchi and rice. The vegetarian option was Thai curry. The lunch garnered praise, even though it was the first time Korean food was being tasted.

Rewarded

In the traditional way, I awarded the competitor of the year and the hobbyist of the year:

Player of the year: Tanja Lovikka

Fan of the Year: Sara Quinones

When explaining the criteria for awarding the prizes, Teemu stated that the choice was difficult because there are a large number of good fighters and enthusiastic enthusiasts in our club. Good luck to the winners!

The awards were preceded by Petter's short lecture on Taekwondo.

We had a sauna in the evening

In the evening, we took a sauna and enjoyed refreshments in the sauna of the competition hall under the banner of the Helsinki Open karonka. Some continued into the Helsinki night. TU11 would also like to thank the volunteers who couldn't make it to Kisahalli on Saturday.

Former national team coach Kim Sinisalo directs a one-day camp at the training center, where everyone interested in the match is welcome. The minimum age is about 11 years.

Along with training, juniors and adults participate in an interesting seminar on differences between cultures, which will certainly be useful in international activities.

The price of the camp is 25 euros. The camp is free for the athletes of the training center.

Sophia Vassilaki took gold in cadets and Eddie Quinones in novice children. Sara Quinones took silver in the novice children.

A good display for the World Cup

For Sophia, the tournament victory was an important stage on the way to the Junior World Championships. Additional displays may still be needed, but two international tournament wins in consecutive weeks indicate a strong level of performance.

Losses for the other team in the first matches

Pauli Raivio, Tanja Raivio, Voker Feka and Aleksi Väyrynen suffered opening losses. Everyone had difficulties with the feeling of the match and the flower could not reach its own basic level. The preparation was perhaps too thin and the feeling of the match was a bit lacking due to the 3-month competition break.
