According to sources, the junior orienteers participated in a training camp that is part of the official preparations for the Junior World Championships. The Junior World Championships will be held in Karlskrona between June 29 and July 4. Pontus Petersson from OK Orion is one of the organizers of the training camp and the Junior World Championships.
" Hannah Josefsson from Karlshamn is part of the junior national team and competes for the Scanian club FK Göingarna. " The training week ended over the weekend with competitions in two different distances, open to all ages. Hannah Josefsson finished second in her class in the weekend competitions, behind Janka Mikes from IFK Mora OK.
It is very fun to be able to showcase the fantastic orienteering terrain we have here in Blekinge.
The exact dates of the training camp this week have not been specified, and it remains unknown whether Hannah Josefsson will be officially selected for the Junior World Championships. The total number of participants in the weekend competitions is also not reported.
Of course, it is the biggest goal in my age as an orienteer.
