By:

The Try outs for the Icelandic National Poomsae Team 2022 & Talent Team 2022 were held on September 3rd 2021 in Ármann and was a great success with 37 people signing up in hopes of becoming a part of the two Teams. National Coach – Lisa Lents from Denmark conducted the election.


“I would like to congratulate you all with your election or a reelection to the Poomsae National Team 2021/2022 & the Talent Team 2021/2022 and acknowledge you for the performances shown at the audition. I was pleased and proud to see you doing your best while performing and showing motivation to be elected to the Teams. I hope that you will do your best to preserve and strengthen your motivation to develop in the upcoming season. I would also like to take the opportunity to congratulate the reelected members with the great achievements in the last season during the difficult time of lockdown, where many were keeping active with online training, online tournaments and seminars! I hope that you will work even harder in the upcoming season, because there are many more victories & goals to come on your path. Lastly I would like to congratulate the appointed Talent Team Coaches 2022; Eyþór Atli Reynisson, Álfdís Freyja Hansdóttir & María Guðrún Sveinbjörnsdóttir. I’m very happy that they have agreed to contribute with their great experience & knowledge & will assist me with the development of our Talent Team.” said National coach, Lisa Lents.
