Here's the latest entry from the Pajulahti 2017 blog, coming as teams gather in Finland for the IBSA Goalball European Championships 2017…

Lithuanian national team center player and a Paralympic gold medallist Mantas Brazauskas is the twentieth writer in the Pajulahti 2017 blog.

Brazauskis reminisces on the golden journey to Rio 2016 and all the attention the players got back home in Lithuania. Now they have had to put that in the past and focus on new achievements.

Lithuania have been through some significant changes in their team. Brazauskis’ text can be read here: http://www.pajulahti2017.fi/en/blog/4668-back-to-business-after-a-dream-come-true-in-rio.
