Early autumn events and dates

SEPTEMBER GALL COMPETITIONS

  • As usual, the first indoor competitions of autumn are organized on the last Friday of the current month 25.9.
  • Under-14s start at 5:00 p.m., cadets, B-juniors and adults at 7:00 p.m. If the cadets wish, they can start earlier with junior enthusiasts, if there are pairs of suitable size and level in the group.
  • We strongly recommend buying your own training protections from the gym's equipment store. If necessary, you can borrow protection from the club in indoor competitions, but the correct size and quality are not guaranteed.
  • NOTE! The elementary group of 7-14-year-olds does not have actual exercises on the day of the indoor competition. However, they can participate in the common warm-up part of indoor competitions and participate as a spectator. In the future, group members can participate in indoor competitions themselves
  • NOTE! The exercises for 3-6-year-olds have been combined into one group that practices from 17:00 to 18:00. The group then also has a playful competition day where they compete in various general physical skills.

OCTOBER BELT EXAMS

  • 3-6 year olds: Wed 14.10.
  • 7-14 year olds: Tue 13.10.
  • Adults: Thu 15.10.
  • More precise times and group divisions will be published closer to the exam
  • Getting to the belt exam requires, depending on the belt rank, a sufficient number of exercises and training months from the previous belt exam. Instructors check the number of visits based on the hall's bar code registrations. All participants in the belt test will be sent a confirmation e-mail about their participation in the test. The list can also be seen at the instructor's desk in the hall about a week before the exam.
  • A sports license from the Finnish Taekwondo Association is required for all participants in the test

Fun was had at Junnu's summer camp

The traditional summer fun of taekwondo athletes with junkies was a huge success this year as well. Taekwondo and skills were practiced for a total of 10 workouts, and in between the activity was relaxed by going outside and playing in the gym. From the taekwondo athletes, a big thank you to the entire camp team, parents, instructors and the food court Corelli! This is good for continuing summer training.

If you don't know which movement sequence or things you need to know in the exam, feel free to ask your instructor. Those who qualify for the belt test will be announced in the gym on the board next to the instructor's desk at the beginning of week 20 and in connection with the exercises. Make sure with your instructor that you know the necessary things. The most important thing in the exam, however, is hard work and the process of doing things.
