Training at Dewars Hall.

Both Czech teams tried the ice in Perth. A bit of irregularity, speed fluctuating from 13.2 to 15.1 and loud air conditioning. These are perhaps the most striking impressions gained by the Czech team. The programme is getting thicker. In an hour and a half we go to the Opening Ceremony and tomorrow at 9.00 the men take on the USA and in the afternoon the women against the Japanese. Surprisingly, it's not raining. So far.
