Raipe makes the first goal of the season

The Finnish icehockey league started on 16. September and the first match in Tampere was very interesting (as always). It was a local game between Tappara and Ilves.

Ilves was better! 7-8! Figures like in baseball! 15 goals! And the best! It was already 1-5 but Tappra came behind and made three last goals (from 4-8 to 7-8). First goal of the season was made by Mark Lee at time 02:42.

("Raipe" is nowaways coaching Young Lejons (20 year old) and the second couch in Ilves. The icon of all Ilves fans (and Tappara fans says that he is as old as all old icons are!).

Raimo selected to Hall of Fame in English

Equipment: Situation 8th January 2012 (Aaarrrrgggg!!!)
1 Kalpa
11 Tappara
14 Ilves

The Finnish icehockey league, season 2004-2005, started on 15. September and the first match in Tampere was very interesting. It was (again!) a local game between Ilves and Tappara (6-1).

Equipment: Oulun Kärpät is the Finnish Champion. Kärpät has now three championships, the first one came in 1981.

As other achievements in the Finnish National League Kärpät has silver medals from the years 1987 and 2003 and bronze medals from 1980, 1984, 1985, and 1986.

If you are a real football fan and happen to be in Tampere between May and October, you might have a chance to see "high class" Finnish football. Tampere United was established just before the Millennium, but they have already won several medals in the Finnish Champion league. They play in Ratina stadium that you can not miss if you take a look at south direction from the city center. It's next to Koskikeskus shopping center and easily spottable in a map.

For tickets and game schedule, take a look at http://www.tampereunited.com/

If you happen to be in Tampere during the winter time and you want to experience something really Finnish.. you should visit the oldest indoor ice stadium of Finland, Hakametsýn jýýhalli. There are two local teams in Tampere that play in the Finnish Champion league. Check out their webpages for game schedules:

http://www.ilves.com/
http://www.tappara.fi/

You can buy tickets at the stadium or at Lippupiste offices for Ilves games (http://www.lippupiste.fi) or Lippupalvelu offices for Tappara games (http://www.lippupalvelu.fi). Bus #25 takes you there from the Central Square.

Oh yes, this is my favourite place in Tampere: Hakametsä, the cradle of the Finnish hockey! It's a home arena of
Tappara (<-- I love it!) and Ilves.

If you come to enjoy a good battle, buy the tickets in advance: Lippupalvelu

The Stairs of Pispala (Pispalan portaat)

One of the stairs at Pispala

This one goes to the "extreme category". :)

There are some pretty long stairs in Pispala, which offer quite a good change for your "running" exercises. Go run the stairs for a few times, and you know what I mean about the "extreme". :-)

If you want more extreme, then run up and roll them down...

I think it is common practise for some hockey players etc. to run those stairs up for MANY(?) times.

Equipment: Legs and guts.

Ice hockey is probably the most popular sport in Tampere(?).

Two major teams, Tappara and Ilves, get their fans to Hakametsä icehall whenever they are playing a home game - especially when they are playing against each other.
