Eddie again to win a hard level tournament

Eddie Quinones was the only representative of Taekwondo athletes in the Dutch G1 tournament. Eddie's goal was gold and at the same time fulfilling the competition criteria. The goal was realized in style, when the reigning Swedish champion of the Nordic countries got a ride in the semi-final. In the final, Eddie knocked down his Dutch opponent in show style 18-2.

Big congratulations to Eddie from the club!

Taekwondo athletes were successful in the opening race of the domestic match season

Loviisa's traditional match competition gathered 144 junior and amateur league players and 36 league league players. The smallness of the league series is partly explained by the Bulgarian G1 tournament held at the same time. The race day dragged on a bit after the technology got thrown around and became quite whimsical. However, the long waits did not hinder the team members of the taekwondo athletes, who at the end of the day carried the precious metal home with both hands.

In the junior series, Taekwondo athletes were represented by a six-member strike group. Hulikkala's brothers, as usual, showed sure grips. Henri won his first match by points, but had to bow out in his second. Lauri, on the other hand, took care of both of his matches with style and calm, snapping home the points with excellent timing. Kaisla Seimola won her three matches in a confident style. After all, the first opponent managed to take the points from Kaisla once, the others no longer had the same privilege. This time, Jade Salko faced her betters right from the start, but the match went really well. Janika Tatti competed in two series, in one of which she won gold with two clear victories and in the other she lost in the final to a familiar opponent, Loviisa's Emma Johansson. Jenny won her only junnum match, but this was just a warm-up for the afternoon dawn.

In the afternoon, the representation team was small but even more efficient. Luca Leskinen's legs didn't run out of power when two league appearances meant two consecutive matches this time. Herttoniemi's Rene Vainiomäki had almost the same situation, so the boys put together six rounds of quite fast-paced taekwondo rally. As a result, Luca won the first of the matches and narrowly lost the second by a point. In the final of the first series, unfortunately, Jyväskyä's Jesse Viitala was better. Jenny practiced the main contact match in two friendly matches, both of which she won with amazing lightning moves and even more lightning high kicks. The king of the day was Plum Kopisto, who, in addition to two series wins, also grabbed the title of the best male athlete of the games. Plum's only problem right now is that the limits of the trophy cabinet are starting to come into play.

Ali Lahti, who made his debut as a match referee, also deserves a special mention.

Taekwondo athletes congratulate all the medalists!
