Instructor of taekwondo athletes and the newest competition representative Pauli Raivio took silver in the traditional Wonderful Copenhagen Taekwondo Tournament. Pauli took the series higher than normal, finding his way all the way to the final of the series, where, after a sudden death round, he had to recognize the multiple Nordic champion Lennart Theilgard as his better.
Although the others did not win the matches this time, everyone got medals and a lot of experience to take home.
After the competitions, Pauli, Tanja Lovikka and Aleksi and
Milla Väyrynen will still be camping in TU11's gym with Zacharia Asidah, who went to train and coach before the World Championships.
The first trainings were already held on Sunday and there was a nice group of people training with the taekwondo athletes.
