Sonkal's year 2021

The year 2021 is slowly coming to an end and we are about to recap what it has brought. The current situation is not conducive for us to meet together on a more massive scale, i.e. at the Christmas show, but we still have, or rather will have, a recap video for you on Friday.

The video will premiere on Friday, December 24, Christmas Eve, at 7:30 pm CET. So, if you're going to have Christmas Eve dinner and gift-giving behind you, tune in. Well, more like our YouTube channel where the video will run. Of course, you'll also find it attached to this article and on Facebook. For international readers, the video has English subtitles!

As usual in the run-up to Christmas, there is little time for everything, so there was no room for reshoots and filming. There was a spelling mistake in the introduction, so it is correct - I will sit behind the stove in January ;-) I would also like to highlight the great success of Jiri Faltin at the European Championships in October. Jirko made it 2 times and it's an incredible success!!!

Every year at the end of the year we dedicate a fundraiser for charity. It's mentioned in the video, but somehow in the rush of information I forgot to mention the traditional pre-Christmas appeal. Try to make a donation to a good cause yourself or with your parents. I'm here again to support Maxik, whom we have been supporting for several years. If it makes sense to you, do it too:

Alternatively, support a project of your choice ;-) The most important thing is to have your heart in the right place and I know from the past years that we taekwondo players have it!

By the way, for next year I promise you a Sonkal calendar, which will be again connected with charity and Christmas.

A big thank you to Alex Macha for producing the video, as well as the ton of other great videos he produced throughout 2021. The other thanks in connection with the video goes to Hubert Skál, who provided the entire thing with English subtitles. And all in a very short time!


I look forward to seeing you at the premiere of Sonkal 2021 on Friday 24 December at 7.30pm CET!

P.S.: bring not only the whole family, but also the candy - it's 24.5 minutes long :-)
