Keskimaa is involved in supporting Jyväskylä Muay Thai's junior activities during the 2023-2024 season, as well as the Thaiboxing championships organized in Jyväskylä on October 13-15! 💚 

Keskimaa actively supports children's and young people's hobby activities and their development. Our junior activities, which have been running for more than a year, have grown all the time, and in the spring of 2023, JMT got the first junior competitors in its club history for the Thai Boxing Children's Championship. The pace is so good that there's no need to slow down now!

We have regularly offered free training opportunities to children from low-income families, people with refugee backgrounds, and to other children and young people in challenging life situations. We want to support the equal enjoyment of all children and young people and inspire them to engage in versatile hobbies. In addition, we want to promote the growth of our junior athletes into athletes by offering high-quality coaching and the opportunity to actively compete. With Keskimaa's support, we have even better opportunities for this.
