Taekwondo athletes had great success in Vantaa

Taekwondo athletes participated with a big team on Saturday 28.10. To the Ambassador's Cup competition organized in Tikkurila, Vantaa, where there was competition in both the match and business series. In the morning, we competed in the match side in the children's series and in the amateur series, and in the afternoon in the league series. Business series competitions rolled on from morning to night with full power. Team spirit was on the roof all day and the competitors' performances matched it. The coaching team Sampo, Pauli, Juho, Mari, Petteri and Heikki were very satisfied at the end of the day.

Lots of first timers in the amateur and children's match series

Over the course of the fall, there have been more and more enthusiastic coaches in amateur match training, and in Tikkurila this was reflected in a great-sized team and an open-minded approach. The level of competitions was quite tough even in the beginner series due to the foreign opposition, so the victories did not come easily in any series. Of the morning's performances, Venne's strong grips and series victory and Kian's tactically mature fighting, which also led Kian to the series victory, were especially memorable. Overall, the overall appearance of the team was excellent, and with a little additional training, the few losses that have come now can be turned into wins. See you at Tuesday's training!

Back-to-back series wins in the match league series

In the league series of the match, victories clicked at a comfortable pace. Tuikku patted two series wins with clean style from start to finish. It is difficult to find pointless moves in Tuikku's matches, and it is equally difficult for the opponents to find points. Plum also continued his familiar confident moves, taking the series victory in the cadets and taking silver in the juniors. Venne's first contact in cadet competitions could not have started more deliciously. Two clear victories and a series victory after the victory in the morning gave reason for quite a broad smile. In the junior series, Severi and Bardia also won clear series victories with brilliant performances. On the side of the smaller cadet girls, the mutual twists of the companions were quite entertaining and the great battles against tough foreign opponents also deserve a hat-trick.

The great level of results of the afternoon shows that the club left the race hall at the end of the day with the award for the best match club.

Good results from a tough business series competition

In Finland, you rarely see business series competitions of such a high standard as now in Vantaa. The lists, including the beginner series, had an exceptional amount of both domestic and foreign opponents. Especially Denmark and Russia were on the move with very hard-level teams. The prize winners in most series were already very fine performances. Watching Christian's freestyle makes you gasp, and Aino and Plum's cadet medals were brilliant performances considering that both of them covered the gap between the match and movement series mats at a steady pace.

TU's team in the business series is quite young and a considerable number of them compete above their own age group. Considering this, the results can be considered quite good. A big team and its good spirit create a good foundation for the future.
