The Swedish Championships and the finals of the Swedish Cup were held this Saturday in Gamlishallen in Uppsala. Issha caried home a whole bunch of medals. In the team competition, Issha took the gold medal through Knut Högvall, Fredrik Karlström, and Christine Alveblad (with Kari Jansson as substitute). Since this was the first team title for the club, it was that much more satisfying. Then, in the the individual event, it took tie-breaks to separate all three medals. When it was all over, Issha had taken home both the silver medal through Kari Jansson, and the bronze medal through Joe Meelis. Finally, in the Swedish Cup, Knut Högvall took the already decided gold medal, with Kari Jansson taking the bronze.
Congratulations all round, and now we all have something to prove next year!
