Korfball Worldchampionships in Brno, CZ


Ask me for the best attitudes of sports students and I'd tell you:
enthusiastic like crazy, always easy to motivate, party mood, a.s.o

That means that a group of seven sports students of the University of Graz, went to Brno in Czech Republic to watch the World Championships in Korfball. An interesting sport I never heard of before, but just imagine it like a mixed (male & female Players) basketball game without boards behind the basket. ;-) I guess everybody is confused after my explaination now, but just look for korfball on youtube and you will see how it works.

Anyway, we spent a weekend there - Friday evening going out in Brno. We were in a club called "Mandarin", which was great (my typical britsen-word ;-) ). As far as I remeber, there were lot of interesting and good-looking people and really nice party music. After a pretty short sleep, we went to the korfball finals and met some members of the IKF (intern. Korfabll Federation), which asked us to establish that specific sport in Austria, cause so far nobody is familiar with it.

After that meeting we watched the finals and could even do some networking. In the evening, we left more than tired the location to return to Austria.

We already decided to return to Czech Republic for sure! ;-)


Autumn in Kärnten



Tjena!

Hej guys, hope you're doing fine. I guess everybody is quite busy right now, but still prepares him-/herself for our reunion in Budapest in december.

So far, I am still studying, as probably all of us Erasmi. This semester I am taking part in a small group of sports students, which support a 1st division basketball team in Austria. We're making physical tests, give advices in training lessons and try to handle a nutrition program for around 15 athletes. Pretty exciting and much interesting work to do.

Some weekends ago, I spent 3 days with Sibi in the southern part of Austria, which is called Kärnten. Here I'd like to give some impressions I got and took pictures of:

Cosy evenings with some excellent wine...

They haven't really given hugs ;-)
