Junior Camp mini-blog: Day 1

Junior rugby guru Miika Valo will be updating us on Finland's juniors from Eerikkälä throughout the week:

Day 1:

FIRA junior camp started today @ Eerikkälä. Finnish and Estonian future talents have gone through the opening stages of the camp, dinner & program presentations with flying colours.

The line-out includes 5 scrum-halves, so at least the competition for the number 9 shirt will be fierce! 
FIRA match official educator, Mr. George Bargaunas withstood the barrage of technical tiny details of various law issues, like the Gibraltar - solid....the same cannot be said about the reception of the counter fire, and few lads were sent to bed with homework from irb.com/laws.

Tomorrow morning the boys (and one brave girl) will be facing their first test under the scrutiny of the head coach, Mr. Thierry Demoulin: 45 minutes of warm-up, followed by a practice match, which will be recorded for group analysis.

A great start - lot's of enthusiasm all around!
