It has been a little while since the popular training camps for the youth national team were a regular fixture. But now we are going to get going with national team gatherings, and the first training camp will be in Húsar on the weekend of 22–24 January.
The idea has, as such, been that the camps are for the youth national team, but the older athletes on the A and Island Games national teams are also welcome to join the camps. Our group has become quite large now. Indeed, we can be up to around 40 people. So a great deal of work has been done out in the clubs. These results have not come about by themselves!
The squad in Gothenburg this summer. They are all still just as eager
As mentioned, the first camp will be in Húsar. But the first training session will be in Klaksvík, before we head out to Kalsoy. This will be a strength training session with Treysti. The idea is not to have any particularly hard training at the camps. They are intended more as bonding events, where we get to know one another. Leaders, coaches and athletes from all the clubs alike.
Nor can we plan the training in detail until we know who is coming. And which coaches can come along. The Facebook group FÍF-landslið 2016-17 is the new group we are using for information and registration.
In the run-up to VU-Spelen at the beginning of July, we aim to meet 3–4 more times. These may be long weekends, but they may also just be a single training session where we are all together.
Hopefully everyone will get behind the plans. It is usually good fun. See you in the Facebook group.
