5th national team camp and representation of the Finnish team for Euros
News 2007 >>

In the fifth camp we trained as usual. Saturday and Sunday two trainings, one patterns, the other sparring. This time, however, we also did power test and special techniques. I don't write more about the composition of the trainings this time, let it just be said that for me Saturday was tired work but luckily Sunday went already better. Instead I give more time and space for introducing the Finnish team for European Championships.
