Training
Seefeld is the base camp for the Czech national team
In June 2008, everything in the Olympiaregion Seefeld is focused on the European Championships. The region, along with two top hotels, was nominated by UEFA as an “Official Team Base Camp”.
The participating teams made their decision on where they wanted their headquarters during the championship in December 2007 – and the Czech national team picked the Olympiaregion Seefeld. The Czech team will be staying in Seefeld from June 02-15 and will fly from Innsbruck to Basle and Geneva for the group games there. All the practices will be held in Seefeld and it will be fascinating to watch the training with the top stars, such as Petr Čech (Chelsea); TomአRosický (Arsenal); Jan Koller (FC Nuremberg) and Marek Jankulovski (AC Milan).
