    We has continued in buying training equipment – in year 2002 we have bought 2 posts for power breaking (wirok) and enough plastic boards for this. We take one of this posts on every training camp we have, where we frequently use it for individual training.





    2.Training camps


    Spring and autumn training camps (thursday afternoon-sunday evening) took place in ,for all of Sonkal taekwondists, well-known Frýdštejn. Visit of Aquapark in Liberec was added to autumn training camp´s time schedule. Both young and old enjoy this add up !!!
    We found new location for summer camp – Radvanice near to Adršpasko-teplické rocks. Regarding weather and training plan we have trained in primary school gym or in nature during this challenging 10-days. About 50 taekwondoists between 7-32 years old took part in our training camps.


    This year we are going to organize 2 week-end´s camps and one long-term training camp in summer. During April´s Easter holidays we are planning 5-days camp in Radvanice. In second half of August we will spend 12 days in Malé Svatoňovice (near to Radvanice). Because of summer trainig camp we provide new avalaible way of paying – enlisting on internet and paying by bank transfer. Registration will be avalaible during the March. More about autumn camp will we plan based on sport events plan for second half of 2003.



    3.Web


    We are using functions provided by server NAVRCHOLU for long time to summarize stats about our website. During 2002 pagewievs per 1 day record has been broken for few times. Firstly after European championship (more than 5000), then in September record was on 11.000 pagewievs (looked like „unbreakable“ record) and then pagewievs per day record ended in 12th December on 13961 pagewievs (after VI. Juniors World championship - check photogallery).



    Facts from NAVRCHOLU server:

  • max. number of pagewievs per day - 13961 (12th December)


  • max. number of pagewievs per month – 116134 (September)


  • total pagewievs in 2002 - 504996 (in 2001 it was „only“ 85777)


  • 62nd place in the best sport server survey


  • 1st place belong to Sonkal website in Martial art´s server survey



  • These great stats are main result of our rich photogallery and its design and engine. We have more than 5500 martial art photos and 80 videos.





    We added great new made by Sonkal in second half of 2002 – completely described patterns from Saju Jirugi to Ge-Baek including photos of every technique. It´s really comfortable and you may see each technique from 4 directions. This year we want to add patterns Eui-Am, Choong-Jang and Juche. Then video from Saju Jirugi to Juche, photos of kicks , stances, attacking and blocking tools and more useful things for taekwon-do studies. Of course videos and photos from European championship in croatian Rijeka and Senior World championship, which will take place in Warzsava (Poland) will be avalaible. Look forward to photos from national competitions organized by Czech Taekwondo ITF Federation.




    4.Degrees


    Although number of black belts in Sonkal is still the same, Pavel Bareš passed exams for second degree (II.Dan). So now, at the beggining of 2003 three holders of II.dan and four holders of I.Dan are practicing taekwon-do in Sonkal. Two taekwondoists from Sonkal applies for first degree (Linda Deutschová and Martin Svitek) test this year. We hope that this number will be increased during year.
