Robert Draws Croatia
(Posted 03/06/08)

The draw has now been published for the World Under-21 semi finals and the news for Robert Ksiezak is that he has a long trek to Croatia to prepare for.

One semi-final is at Rye House on the 15th June and although that would obviously have been easier to get to, it is not exactly one of Robert's favourite tracks and it would also have meant Tigers would be without him that evening as they take on Birmingham at Ashfield.

The other semi, in which Robert has now been drawn, has been moved to Gorican in Croatia on the 19th July. Logistically it will be a bit of a nightmare for Robert and he will face a difficult journey after the meeting to get back to Glasgow in time for the meeting with Mildenhall on the 20th. It is arguably also by far the more difficult meeting with the strongest field.

The full draw for both legs is as follows:-
