A loss for the city of Patras, the absence of Katerina Kyriakopoulou in the National

And while the city of Patras is preparing to carry out on 18 to 19 June the races in the National Championships Open Athletics who will be at the…
Παμπελοποννησιακό Stage, comes an event that certainly outlines a very important absence for the event.
The champion of Greece in high jump, Katerina Kyriakopoulou, it’s not going to take part in the games that will be made. The athlete of the Παναχαϊκής had a little relapse in the last year of injury, something that has kept him out the last time.
The absence will be a significant loss, not only for It, but for the patraikos arena, as the athlete of the “κοκκινόμαυρων” was one of the greatest hopes of Patras to give the city a gold medal in such an important national event.

The same stresses on the patrasevents.en the following about the decision: “With my coach, Claus Βενέρη, we decided not to take part in the national championship as there was little relapse in the last year’s injury to me and my participation would be a risk.
Still we haven’t decided if I’ll do a fight in July or if I won’t fight at all this year. It will depend on if I continue to have discomfort in my leg.”

So, in an event expected to arrive in Patras, the biggest names in athletics, the elite of the classic sport, he will be missed from the games of the Παμπελοποννησιακού Stage, the most important athlete that is currently on the territory in the high jump.
The same, however, is certain, that it will continue to be struggling to return as much as possible with a vengeance in racing action, after the fights that will take place in her hometown.
