Our men’s national team will be a training camp in Portugal (Porto) over the next days. Ken Diederich and his players will travel to Porto on Monday and will stay at the SUNLIVE sports complex. 3 practices per day and video sessions are planned for the 4 days in Portugal, the team will return to Luxembourg on Thursday. On Friday, Luxembourg will continue to practice at the Coque in Kirchberg and on Saturday (25th), Luxembourg will host Sluc Nancy for a gala match (ticket presale –> Ticket presale for Luxembourg – Sluc Nancy is open ).
The national team has not practiced together for 8 months so that this camp is a great opportunity to start preparing the games of the small European countries that will start at the End of May in Malta. Mike Feipel (injured) and Thomas Grün (work) can not be part of the training camp in Portugal. A goal of Ken Diederich is to integrate Dorian Grosber into the group, the young player of Alba Berlin is one of the most talented players that Luxembourg has had over the last years.
