Nordic Champions Participate in Janus Open II

Last weekend, the Faroese Girls Championship was played in Tórshavn. This was also the qualifying tournament for the Nordic Championship for girls, which will be held in Norway in April 2026.

KVF was present and spoke with Lisa, who earlier this year became the best girl in the Nordic countries in the U13 group. See the KVF feature by clicking here.

We are pleased that, in addition to Lisa, the winners of the other groups will also participate in Janus Open II. They are Guðrún Fanney Briem in the U16 group and Iðunn Helgadóttir in the U20 group — both from Iceland.
