Scottish Open 2017 – Shaping up with an “Nordic wind”

largett-kopiOnce again the Scottish Open are filled up rapidly! Still 3 month to go, and the capacity of the tournament are over half-full! Mainly there are fighters from The British Isles, but this year a strong Nordic wind are blowing in over the Scotland…

martin_skogmo_venstre-kopiThe tournament attract as mention fighters from The British Isles,  England, Ireland, Wales and Scotland. The other part will be from the Scandinavian countries, Denmark, Sweden and Norway. As we speak, Denmark has not entered the tournament this – but the have been central the lats years so we think they will come with fighters also this year.

Sweden has been a strong nation in numbers and in quality. Norway have this year really been turned on the heat, and several Dojo`s and organizations are represented.

Last time, Scottish Ope 2016, also Poland and The Netherlands was in the tournament, and it remains to be seen whether they or other nations enters the tournament this time. -but if the are going to that, well hurry up because last time many fighters could not enter the tournament during the full capacity.
