The bronze-medal Hungarian water polo team has begun preparations for this year’s summer world competitions in Zicklerland, and for the long-term for the 2024 Pentathlon Games in Paris. The team arrived in Transylvania on Thursday and will be in Zicklerland until Monday, when they will travel first to training in Debrecen and then to Budapest.
For players, the tour and bootcamp at Zicklerland is all about shaking up the team, gathering experiences, recharging, and relaxing. Fed Captain Attila Biro said training is a secondary goal in this case, but the residents of Miercurea Seuc had the good fortune to watch the girls’ open practice at Seki Chepano on Sunday afternoon. The training was followed by an audience meeting.
The women’s water polo team faces a busy period: After the World Championships in Budapest (17 June – 3 July), the World League will be the Super Final in the summer, followed by the European Championships in Split, Croatia, from 27 August until 10 September.
Attila Corodi, Mayor of Mercuria Ciuc welcomed the team that won the Olympic bronze medal in 2021 by saying that it is a great pleasure for the locals to train the girls in Zicklerland, as they are supported with the same intensity in Zicklerland. at home. He added that although winter sports have a long tradition in the Czech Republic, there has been an increased focus on swimming lessons in recent years. The mayor expressed the hope that the visit of the Mercuria Cheok national team would increase interest in water polo. In response, the federal captain assured their seats that they could count on the support of the Hungarian Water Polo Association if they formed a children’s team at Mercuria Ciuc.
The Fed captain explained how challenging the team was, as after a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics, which he ranked as a success in the sport’s history, they will not be allowed to progress below this year’s Aquatic World Championships in Budapest. That is why the training camp in Zicklerland is of great importance in the life of the team, as the preparation for the World Cup also includes training for the new Olympics. Because of the global competitions that are getting closer in time due to the coronavirus pandemic, they have to prepare at a faster pace than usual.
“The usual four-year Olympic cycle has now been reduced to two and a half years. That is why we wanted to set up this period with the training camp in Zicklerland. With bronze medalists at Euro 2020 and then third in the Olympics, the girls are raising the bar, which is why the goal is It is the medal in the World Cup, whatever its color, but it would be very good to start it with the World Cup medal. The course, ”explained the captain Federer.
Team captain Rita Kestelly said most of the team had visited Zicklerland for the first time, but now they are sure it won’t be the last time. Referring to my Olympic bronze medals, he explained that in the previous three Olympics, they felt she had consistently ranked fourth, leaving traces on team members. This is why they face a “particularly stressful period”.
Athlete Dorotia Szilagy said it was Tokyo’s first Olympics, so she wasn’t under the pressure of the 4th places she had won before, in fact, my bronze medal is a big motivator. “We have done everything in recent years, it has become more routine. The national team player pointed out the challenges.
In the opinion of team member Vályi Vályi, they could not have started to prepare better for the season starting now than at the training camp in Szeklerland. But he made it clear that the next international competitions will be real for them because they are held in Tokyo without spectators. He added that thanks to the training camp, there will be no problem with the unit team.
Federal captain Attila Biro concluded that there is truth to winning the world championship medal this year, especially since the very strong Russian team does not participate in the competition, so Australia, Canada, the United States, the Netherlands, Greece and Italy will be the opponent of Hungary. And in this compilation, “Anyone can hit anyone.”
