Dreams come true! Support for hobbies.

TU11 is involved as a service provider Unelmista.fi platform. Through it you can apply for support for your hobby.

SOS-Children's village's Dreams come true hobby support

SOS-Lapsikylä supports families in challenging life situations with the costs of their children's hobbies. Hobby support is aimed especially at children and young people (ages 7–17) for whom starting or continuing a hobby would not otherwise be possible. The hobby subsidy reduces the inequality and exclusion of children and young people from disadvantaged families in their leisure time.

Support can be granted for the participation fees of guided and regular hobbies. Primarily, support is granted to applications received through the school curator or family social worker and, if possible, also to applications made independently by the family. More information about the hobby at: www.unelmista.fi and unelmista@sos-lapsikyla.fi

Unelmista.fi is a part of SOS-Lapsikylä ry's activities and its development has been financed with the proceeds of Veikkaus.

OLYMPICS!

The taekwondo Olympic tournament will take place from July 24 to July 27. The tournament has therefore been moved from its traditional place from the end of the Games to the beginning of the Games.

The easiest way is to follow the entire tournament on the Discovery+ service, which at least with Elisa is part of the Eurosport package. You can get it separately from the service's website.

If you have a VPN, yes BBC offers perhaps the best set of Olympians, especially with the British included over three days.

A small warning, if you plan to watch the races from beginning to end live, you must wake up early, the broadcast of the morning session starts at 3:55 and continues until 11:03. Evening session 12:55-16:33.

That's about 40 hours of taekwondo celebration! You can read the presets at https://tu11.fi/taekwondo/2021/07/olympiaennakko/.

17 new dan values from the summer belt exam

The belt test was held by Hannu Vikström 5th dan and Timo Jansson 4th dan. Teemu Heino 6th dan and Petteri Kauppinen 5th dan were responsible for the assessment.

Taekwondo athletes 2011 got a new teacher's rank in the exam when parataekwondo multiple medalist Matti Sairanen passed the 4th dan.

The impact of the pandemic on the belt exam was obvious. For some, the exam had been postponed for an annoyingly long time, and for others there had been interruptions in training. Despite everything, the performances were at a good level and the belt values were deservedly increased.

TU11 dan exam 19 June 2021

1. Dan was performed by:

Juuli Mankonen
Jani Lall

Quite a few new belt values from the May exams

At the belt exams in May, a large number of enthusiasts earned their new belt rank. Pat on the back! Hard training was reflected in great performances in the exams themselves, and the bar didn't budge for anyone. 

Thanks also to Mati, Marita, Kirsimarja and Riku, who supervised the exam under the watchful eye of Paul as part of their own progress in the ranks of the black belt. Excellently planned and conducted tests by each. Of course, the same applies to Minna, who won the 3-6 year old exam with a strong routine. 

This is good to continue towards summer training

Level 1 coach training for taekwondo athletes as an intensive course in June

Coach training for taekwondo athletes was unfortunately interrupted at the end of autumn 2020 due to the corona situation. It has not been possible to continue the trainings in the spring either.

In June 2021, we will organize a level 1 training as an intensive course. The course applies to everyone whose Level 1 education was interrupted in the fall, as well as others interested in the subject. We encourage all enthusiasts over 16 years old with at least a red belt to participate. You can attend the training even if you have already completed a similar training, because the subject areas have changed.

Note! Training is mandatory for those participating in the DAN exam in June, if a similar performance has not been done before. 

Objectives and subject areas

  • Learning the ways and practices of the society
  • Identify ways to create a safe and stimulating training atmosphere
  • Identify ways to intervene in problem situations and dangerous situations (e.g. injuries)
  • Illustrates ways of practicing taekwondo skills through progressions and differentiated exercises
  • Learn the basic model for planning a single exercise
  • Learn the basics of different teaching styles and exercise implementation methods

Schedule

Thu 3.6. – 17:00-20:00
Thu 10.6. – 17:00-20:00

In addition to face-to-face teaching, examinees receive a few practice tasks. The location of the close episodes is the Taekwondo athletes' hall in Konala.
