Taekwondo athletes in top training in Madrid
Taekwondo athletes' representatives Tanja Lovikka, Kasper Wargelin, Eddie Quinones and Sara Quinones have spent the Christmas break training taekwondo at the international camp of Finland's Olympic coach Jesus Ramal in Madrid.
During the week, the TU11 team has received top-level instruction and plenty of match experience against international opponents. The camp has teams, e.g. From Spain, Italy and Mexico.
On Sunday, the camp culminated in a huge indoor competition, where the competitors gained competition experience against their own competitors. This is a good starting point for 2014, for which every camper in Madrid has already set both domestic and international goals.
Below are Sara and Eddie's poom skills and pictures from the camp:

In the taekwondo athletes' indoor competitions on 14.5. almost 50 athletes
Forty children and twenty adults raised the atmosphere to the ceiling. The work remained in the glove when we had visiting judges from Vihti. Thanks to Illka Vikström and the Lindfors sisters for their help.
Below are some of Hilla Palviainen's shots.
Adults
11.5. in the league competitions for adults, TU11 was represented by 3 players, all in the league.
Elom Damalie was the first to compete in the men's -74 kg category. However, he experienced a point loss to Klaukkala's Terho Räsänen. The match, which started well, froze towards the end, and there were no chances to win in the last set. Elom's placement was 5.-8.
Tanja Lovikka competed in the women's -49 kg category. The first match against Amina Harek ended with an overwhelming points victory before full time. The opponent in the final was Nina Ohra-Aho from Klaukkala. In the second set, Ohra-Aho got a couple of main hits, thanks to which he escaped to the point victory. So Tanja's ranking was 2nd.
Teemu Heino took his place in the men's heavyweight division. Tero Kuorikoski has certainly improved as a competitor, but he was still unarmed, even matching Teemu's routine performance. 3-0 win and 1st place in the series for Teemu.
Cadets
Sophia Vassilak's series (cadet girls -44) is one of the highest standards in Finland, if compared to the international level of the series. Sophia got to experience this the hard way after already losing the first match to Loviisa's Emma Reimann. The match was one of the toughest battles of the day, even though the result of the tournament was by no means in line with preliminary expectations. Sophia's ranking 3rd-4th.
Voker Feka won his first match in the cadet boys' +65 kg series with a great upper technique in the extra set. In the second match, Pori's Antti Vajavaara came up against him, who took the main hit right at the start, but it was judged too hard. I saw a series win for Voker.
Children
Among the children, Sara and Eddie Quinones were present this time. Sara had only one opponent, whom she beat in showmanship 2-0. For Eddie, the race was full of adversity. In the first match, the opponent's armor was broken, and thus Eddie did not get points, despite good hits. The next 2 matches were won by Eddie, and in the third it was fought for the series victory, after the pool matches crossed paths. The match started well, but at the beginning of the second round, Eddie and his opponent kicked their legs hard together. The hit was so hard that Eddie was unable to continue and had to go to the hospital to have his leg checked. Fortunately, no fracture was found in the leg, but unfortunately the first series win eluded Eddie. A silver medal was hung around the neck.
