From Chef de Mission
Mikaela Ingberg, Deputy Chef de
Mission
Together we are heading towards an
adventure and I hope this trip will be the
beginning of your journey towards even
bigger competitions and greater achieve-
ments. We are representing the Finnish
colors at the EYOF and will do it with pride,
and most of all, with excitement. I hope
you will have a memorable experience,
learn plenty of new things and make new
friends. Remember, “together everyone
achieves more”! Pidetään lippu korkealla,
hyvä Suomi :)
Peter Brüll, Chef de Mission
The Finnish Olympic Committee as well
as the Finnish team in Tbilisi are await-
ing the Youth Olympic Games with a lot
of expectations. Finnish Team comprises
60 athletes. For most of the athletes on
the team it is their first big international
event. Finnish athletes will strive for
victories and success. Medals or records
are not the main reason to participate
in this wonderful event. Gaining experi-
ence and increasing motivation to train
even harder in order to become an elite
athlete is what matters the most.
