From 18th to 21st of April, there are no coached training sessions in Tapion Sulka, as those days are official bank holidays in Finland. The courts are available for the players who are participating on trainings normally organized during Friday and Monday (during the hours Esport Center is open).

The popular summer camps are fast approaching! This summer, Tapion Sulka has a record number of camps: two recreational / hobby junior camps and two competitive junior camps. Here you will find all the necessary information about the recreational junior camps:
