Medals for taekwondo athletes from Porvoo

Good mood at the Porvoo Games

The team of taekwondo athletes collected medals of all colors from the match competitions in Porvoo on 10.10. In Porvoo, the junior and amateur series were played in the morning and the league series for all age groups in the afternoon.

In the morning, the Power Girls Aino, Sofia, Jenny and Sara cleaned the tables in their own sets. Aino played in three different series, taking a whopping eight matches, eight of which were victories. Thus, Aino has three gold medals and a well-deserved championship prize. Sofia and Jenny were superior in their own series, and the mutual battle was extremely tight until the end. However, Jenny took a longer stroke this time. Sara competed in two series, winning one and taking silver in the other.

The highlights of the afternoon's league series were Emmi's victories in both the cadet and junior series, as well as Eddie's dramatic battle with Nurmijärvi's Oskari Viinanen. Everyone seemed to be in the right mood for the match, and it's good to continue towards the Nurmijärvi Games.

All rankings

Aino Kortelainen – 1st / 1st / 1st (E1, E1 and D2)

Sofia Sarala – 2nd (E1)

Jenny Vettenniemi – 1. (E1)

You can find the prices of belt tests from here. You can pay for the exam on the spot in cash or afterwards using the normal invoicing method.

Getting to the exams requires enough practice notes and months from the previous exam. The techniques and movement sequences used in the exercises must also be mastered in the exam. 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.

In addition, participating in the belt tests requires a sport license from the Finnish Taekwondo Federation, which you can order for one year at a time from here.
