Finland on Offense

Look for these players:

Tomi Bruns: A very intelligent player with huge hucks and outstanding timing on his cuts.

Marko Korhonen: The fastest player on the team. Remarkable agility and awesome physique. Look out for those famous inside-out throws.

Jouni Kukkonen: Standing at approximately two meters and having impressive aerial capabilities and speed makes him a very versatile player indeed and a challenge for all defenders.

Finland on Defense

Look for these players:

Marko Miettinen: Lots of stamina and speed. A hint to handlers: handle with care...

Olli Suurnäkki: Gravity means nothing to him. A defensive visionary.

Ville Toppila: Fast and furious. Surprises with his defensive layouts.
