Next up ? Finland !

by Chris
Just when I get settled back in....BAM ! I'm off again !

This time though, Kelly & I get to go together...whew.

This Friday starts training camp for Team Ireland as we prepare to depart on Monday for our long awaited trip to the European Lacrosse Championships in Finland.

This will be our first trip together to Scandanavia and the extreme Northern reaches of Europe.
(Kelly went to Norway when she was 10)

I'm flying into Helsinki and Kelly is flying into Tampere a few days later...we'll meet up at the tournament which is being held in Lahti.


While I'm busy coaching, Kelly will have the opportunity to take some side trips with Patrice. Michael K. apparently has put together a dossier of side trip options for our ladies including Estonia, Stockholm and St Petersburg.

Keep an eye out for blog posts from...who knows !
