Indoor competitions in September

Competitive spirit and sparring

Those who are not going all the way to Turkey to experience the Olympic qualifiers can come over the weekend to watch Teemu and Suvi's preliminaries on the large TV screen in the hall. Along with the grandstand, the hall's carpet and equipment are freely available for independent training. Those looking for sparring opponents should be there around 12-2pm, when a free-form sparring ring is held. Juice, coffee and small snacks are also available.

The matches of the qualifying tournament start at 10:00, when the hall doors also open. The hall will be occupied as long as there are Finns participating in the tournament, but at least until 15:00. You should also watch Jenna and Toni's matches on Saturdays from home!

Welcome aboard!

Taekwondo athletes at the Madrid camp

Post date 29.12.2013

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:

Camp in Madrid 26-30 December 2013 led by Jesus Ramal and Suvi Mikkonen

Post date 25.9.2013

Jesus Ramal and Suvi Mikkonen will organize an international camp in Madrid on December 26-30, 2013. At least 2 athletes from our club will go to the camp. You go too. More information from Sampo.

Here is Suvi's message to Finnish taekwondo players:

"Finns! 26-30 December will be held in Madrid 2 winter camp! Last year the camp was amazing and this year many teams have already registered, for example: Mexico, Portugal, Scotland, Germany... And many others are interested. It is possible to get home accommodation with a family from our company, but there is not enough for everyone, so if you are interested, contact us and reserve your place!! Of course, you can also stay in a hotel. There is no information about the prices of the camp yet, but it is not expensive. Last year there were 3 Finns, I hope there will be more this year! There are 2 training sessions in 2 groups: children and cadets are 1 group and junior and senior are the other group. And the race on the last day. Are you going to miss it?”
