Grindsted hosts the first FITEQ event in Denmark

This season, FITEQ organizes its very first event in Denmark as the city of Grindsted will host 2024's first Teqball Tour in June.

From June 21st to June 23rd, 2024, Grindsted, Denmark, will be abuzz with excitement as it plays host to the Teqball Tour. This unique event promises to showcase the finest talent in the world of teqball, offering thrilling competitions in various categories including women's and men's singles, women's, men's, and mixed doubles. Held at the prestigious Magion Sport Hall, Grindsted, the event will captivate audiences with its electrifying atmosphere and fierce competition.

As the hosting city for the Teqball Tour, Grindsted adds another feather to its cap, reaffirming its status as a hub for sporting excellence and cultural diversity. The Magion Sports Hall, with its state-of-the-art facilities and convenient location, serves as the perfect venue for this prestigious event, providing participants and spectators alike with an unforgettable experience.

The Teqball Tour is much more than just a sporting event; it's a celebration of skill, passion, and camaraderie. As athletes from around the globe converge in Grindsted, they bring with them a shared love for the game and a determination to push the boundaries of their abilities. Over three exhilarating days, every match promises to be a spectacle worth witnessing. One of the most anticipated aspects of the Teqball Tour is the inclusion of mixed doubles, highlighting the inclusivity and diversity that are hallmarks of the sport. Regardless of gender or background, players come together to showcase their talents and forge lasting connections, embodying the spirit of unity that defines teqball.

The hosting country is full of great talents. Nanna Lind Kristensen who won the bronze medal at the European Games is one of them. The 18-year-old teqer is currently the 15th on the FITEQ World Ranking. Brian Mengel Thomsen is another dedicated Dane. By reaching the semifinals and finishing fourth at the World Teqball Championships 2023 in Bangkok, Mengel had his best-ever performance. Both of them will face their competition in front of the home crowd.

"We are glad to have FITEQ's event in Denmark." starts Brian Mengel Thomsen. "The Danish players are considered among the top 5 in each category but playing in front of the home crowd could give us an extra boost. In my club, plenty of young talents will debut in Grindsted as their first international teqball event which will provide them with essential experience." says the World Ranking fifth player who made a video about his historical performance in Bangkok.
