Finnish Coach Comments on Russian Skiers Training Camp in Ramsau

The head coach of the Finnish cross-country skiing team, Teemu Pasanen, commented on the Russian skiers’ training camp in Ramsau and the fact that they are staying at the same hotel as the Finnish team. The athletes being coached by Yuri Borodavko and Yegor Sorin are preparing for the season in Austria.

«We didn’t have any prior information about this training camp. Once we arrived, we noticed that they also appeared to be training here and that they were allowed to come. We’re focused on our own training, and it doesn’t really matter to us who else is present,» Pasanen stated, as reported by Ilta-Sanomat.

He further noted that there were no tense moments, such as during breakfast at the hotel. Skiers from Switzerland, Austria, France, and Slovakia are also here, and various national teams’ biathletes are conducting their own training sessions.
