He has also had other tasks in the sport on a wide front.
Liisa Peltola, who has influenced Tampere Kumkang and Mansen Taekwondo, is an experienced national level competitor. As a rule, Liisa focuses on her own training, but she is at least involved in the competitions as a coach.

Taekwondo athletes distributed equipment to Cuban enthusiasts through the Finnish Cuba Society. Despite the high level of the sport in the country, there is a constant shortage of equipment. In the future, TU11 will continue to cooperate with the Cubans, and in the future there is already a wish for a training trip to Havana.
Thanks to Eddy Quinones for the arrangements and pictures.
