MXGP Academy's first training camp in Malaga

Great success for MX-B certification, in the first training camp of the MXGP Academy for Motocross riders in Malaga (Spain).
Malaga was the venue of the second training camp for Motocross riders from all over Europe. In total there where riders from 8 nationalities, most between 10 and 18 years old, for a successful event.

Eight young riders took part to MX-A, fifteen riders to MX-B. The whole program was in combination with JB training school (John vd Berk) as an application in his programme in Malaga, in the South of Spain. Training track, accommodation, weather and hotel where perfect as usual and tracks were in good conditions. It was the second edition of this training camp and all participants are already looking forward to the next year, with the pilot MX-C proof.

A particular note for Switzerland, which was well represented in this training camp. Katja Zund, from Switzerland, has been the first female MX rider to succeed in the MX-B proof and she was, for sure, one of the best in the group. Michelle and Nina Zund, sisters of Katja, succeeded as well in the MX-A proof. So the Motocross Training Camp is no longer only chosen by young male riders but from now on the female MX participants are coming up as well.

Next Summer the Motocross Academy will visit the Swiss GP, looking forward to a training session on that track.
The next training camp will be held in Tartu (Estonia), for the Northern region of Europe, next Summer. Further information will follow.
