Junior Boys Team Events - Group F
(Day 1)
Contrary to what had been communicated to the team during preparation for the games, Malta
has been drawn into Group F together with Italy, Slovenia and Bulgaria. The team arrived
in Bratislava to abruptly find this change of draws. Although the adversaries are now much
stronger than what was expected the team is surely going to give the best possible
performance.Day 1 started off with a match against
the Italian team who are the favourites of the group.
