Once again this year the joint Nordic youth training camp, Scandi Camp, is being organised. It is a training camp for all young people aged 18–25 in the Nordic countries.
The camp is organised by the youth councils of the athletics federations in the Nordic countries, and this time it will be held in Sæby in North Jutland on 5–8 July. These are the days immediately after the VU-spålen, which FÍF’s talent group will be attending.
Two years ago Jóan Karl Joensen, Jan Elmar Sørensen and Bjørk Herup Olsen took part in Scandi Camp, which was held in Stenungsund in Gothenburg that year. All three were full of praise for the camp, where they made lots of new friends.

Everyone is welcome to sign up for the camp. The age limit of 18 is not set in stone. If you are 16–17, you can sign up as well. This is a chance to train alongside fellow competitors from across the Nordic countries and with some of the best coaches in the Nordic region.
It was decided at an FÍF board meeting that if the clubs nominate their members for the training camp, FÍF will cover the cost of the camp itself, which is DKK 1,700 if registration is made by 1 June, and DKK 2,000 if registration is made later. The final deadline for registration is 8 June.
If you are interested, you need to get your club to nominate you. Please read more about Scandi Camp in the attached leaflet, which can be downloaded from the link here: ScandiCamp 2010.
