Palun mulle teada anda, kes soovivad sellele kommertsvõistlusel kaasa teha. Sõit ja Osavõtukulu on oma kulu ja kirjadega, kuid ise plaanin sinna sõita ja oleks nö huvitavam koos minna. Tegemist siis pika traditsiooniga võistlusega ja hea korraldusega. (Pilet vaja võtta Prahhasse - vajadusel juhendan mis kuupäeval jne.) edasi tuleb meile vastu juba EKFL juhatuse liige Ergo Metsla ,kes aitab Praha Opava viia rendiautoga, seega kohapealse transpordi osas aitab Ergo, kes ka kohaliku keelt vabalt valdab.

Võistlusjuhend:

Location

The city of Opava is located at 360 km. from the city of Prague and 30km from the city of Ostrava. The city of Opava is situated at the confluence of the Silesian rivers Opava and Moravice. The earliest written record of the existence of Opava dates back to 1195, to the days when it was a crossroad of trade routes. But it was only by a decree, issued by King Přemysl I in 1224, that it received recognition as a town. It flourished as a place where people were busy trading, farming and practising crafts. Two market places were established in the centre of the town. Opava as part of the Czech crown lands became the centre of the Opava region’s princedom. In 1742 after Austria lost the war of their “inheritance” against Prussia, Opava became the capital of so-called Austria-Silesia and simultaneously the seat of the authorities that administered of the land on behalf of the rulers. In 1820 the most prominent European monarchs and diplomats of the time convened here at the “Opava Congress”. At the end of World War II Opava suffered dire losses during the so-called Ostrava Operation. A considerable section of the town was destroyed. Nevertheless a number of cultural and historical memorials remained intact. The Minorite monastery and church of the Holy Spirit, built before 1269, are among the earliest memorials, which have been preserved and dean’s church of the Ascension of the Virgin Mary. Then there are some significant technical sights worth seeing such as the fortifications – a unique military stronghold built before World War II. The fortress in Opava – Milostovice is open to the public.

Opava – rich in history and historic landmarks – is also an important cultural centre for the region. Since 1805 the Silesian Theatre has staged shows. The oldest museum in the Czech Republic, which is in Opava, opened its doors to the public in 1814. The Silesian regional museum built in 1893-1895 in a historic style is upholding the tradition. Annual festivals also figure prominently in the cultural life of the habitants of Opava.

Education system in Opava gained prestige in 1991 with the establishment of the Silesian University. In fact it has become the centre of important sports events. Importantly, it has a splendid modern football stadium set in the Municipal Gardens, the Tyrš stadium for athletics, the Winter stadium, a heated swimming pool, Municipal Lido, tennis courts and riding school. Currently, Opava flourishes as an industrial and business centre.

Many a renowned person in the field of science or culture was either born in Opava or lived to bring fame to the town - Antonín Vašek, advocator of people’s rights and scientific truth, the farther of poet Petr Bezruč, national revivalist Vincenc Prasek, Jan Zacpal, editor and journalist, Josef Zukal, historian of the Opava region, artists Valentin Držkovic and Josef Šrámek, composer Václav Kálik, writers Bohuslav Balbín, Silesian poet Petr Bezruč and writer and traveller Joy Adamson, founder of genetics Johann Gregor Mendel, one of the creators of coloured photographs – Karel Schnizel.

Kohale jõudsime eile õhtul hotelli eesti aja järgi kell 22.30 ja kuniks sai sisse sätitud ja söödud oli kell seal maal et magama kerida. Sellepärast ka ei jõudnud kirjutada. Kõik on kontrolli all, Ergo Metsla oli meil ilusasti vastas Praha lennujaamas. Praha -Opava umbes 350 km koos ca 1 tunnise vahepeatusega ühes suuremas kaubanduskeskuses ja koos erinevate ummikutega teel läks sõit ca 5 tundi. Muidu oli trass hea kohati sai 160 km sõidetud /h, samas reede õhtul sõitis palju tšehhe maale suvilatesse ja kohati oli liikumine vaevaline, samuti teetööd.

Hommikusöök söödud, kaal peak olema täpselt 90 juures ,seega ei pea väga muretsema, eile hoidsin toiduga ka tagasi, sest liikumist ka ei olnud. Kell 10 ehk siis eesti aja järgi 11.00 algab kaalumine ja registreerimine ja peale seda kell 14 võistlus ja õhtul 18 finaalid. Eks registreerimisel näeb mis vormis konkurendid on. Tomas Tabašiar, kes nädal varemvõitis Austria Cup abs. on ka minu katis, no see on tugev vastane, kuid teisi nimejärgi ei tea.

Tüdrukutel on palju konkurente ja väga tugevaid. Bikiinis pidi tehtama nii, et jagatakse pikkuse järgi kolme rühma ja õhtul finaali lastakse iga rühma 3 paremat so 9 naist. Loodame parimat! Proovin vahepeal operatiivselt teada anda kuidas meil läheb. Sest hotell on ka kohe võistluspaiga kõrval.

[vend vähk 659]

Tänud Otile esimese ülevaate eest! Võimalusel ikka pilte ka, aga arusaadav kui aega ei ole! Edu Eesti koondisele!

[Ott Kiivikas 817]

Kaalumine läbi ja hakkame grimmima. Palju rahvast ja läbisegi registreeriti ,kuid üllatavalt kiiresti sujus, seega kiitus korraldajale. Paari oma kaalu meest ka nägi enda ees ja need väga millegagi mind ei üllatanud eks laval näeb.

Tegime pilte ka kui jääb aega panen kasvõi mõne kaalumiselt.

Terv

Ott
