In Porvoo, both contestants and business series competitors are in high gear

The match team has great stamina in their legs

Porvoo Open 2019 gathered domestic match competitors in Porvoo on Saturday 12.10. Medals were sought after in the children's and hobbyists' categories Noel, Luca, Vlera and Honey. Noel was a real firecracker and the energy was channeled into excellent movement and accurate scoring. As a reward, a fair series win in one's own weight and age category and silver one age and weight category higher. Luca also represented in two series and also advanced to two finals, both with the same opponent. This time Lucan had to settle for silver, but at the end of excellent struggles. Vlera took direct finals in their first games. Great job and open-minded match, even though Vlera has just started the sport. Silver for Vlera, but with a great performance against an experienced opponent. Honey also had a direct final, which was handled spectacularly with a point difference win!

They participated in the league series Plum, Lauri, Janika and Alina. Plum and Lauri advanced in their big series, both from different sides of the chart, once again to the mutual final. Now it was Plum's turn to take home the steady torque and the gold. Janika fought her way to the semi-finals in style, where she faced the EC representative of the weight class. All in all, a great performance from Janika and an even match could have turned into a win for either side. However, Janika had to give in and brought home the bronze. Alina had a similar situation, who was able to seriously challenge her tough opponent. In the end, the decision of the match went to the overtime, where, unfortunately, we lost.

You trained Sampo, Mari and Pauli and a heater Bard were convinced of making matches. As for the judges, the club and, of course, high-quality refereeing were represented as usual by team-Lahti as well as giving evidence as a judge Vlad.

I'm full of medals for the business series team

After the match day, the business series league competition was contested on Sunday 13.10. Due to the vacation week and injuries, the business series team remained quite small, but the results were convincing. Eero won gold in both his individual series and freestyle and even silver in the pair series with Mudo's Elvi Ollila. Double gold came as well For Alex and For Aino, who both won their individual series and the doubles series together. The value of the performance is enhanced by the fact that Alex and Aino didn't get much time to practice as a couple before the competitions. Just a hard return to the competition fields after a long injury period. For Bella barely came second in the cadet girls' series, which means a double win for the club.

Having worked as a coach Laura's it was easy to smile at the end of the day.
