Martin Hála in Ďolíček: In addition to playing for Bohemka, he has experience for children
Yes. At the age of four in Olomouc in the gym, at Sigma Olomouc training, there were older boys and I cried after half an hour when something could not work for me and wanted to go home. (laughter) I don’t remember the name anymore, many of those coaches have already been replaced during that career.
Try to pinpoint the moments of your career that have stuck in your memory the most?
Definitely silver with the U19 national team at the European Championships in Romania, the first league start against České Budějovice, the first league goal in the Mladá Boleslav net, victory in the cup.
How are you doing with Sigma Olomouc at the moment?
All the above-mentioned milestones are connected with Sigma, where I spent twenty-five years of an active career, there was a descent to the second league and immediately progress, injuries, I experienced good and worse times. I will not forget Sigma, I have lived a part of my life there, but it was time to move on.
Spicy transfer: Jan Kuchta returns from Moscow to Prague. Have a party!
Now you live in King’s Court, how did that happen?
Love. (smiling) Partner Bára comes from here, so that made sense to us.
Are you already familiar with football events in the Beroun region?
I’ve already toured the course, mainly because of the Hála Sport Academy and individual training, so I have a little overview of who works.
Have you already received any lassoes from local clubs in the future?
No, no one has called me yet. (Laughs) Maybe if they read this interview.
In the end, you signed the Bohemians. You will definitely be closer. Was it one of the offenses against the Kangaroos?
Yes, we wanted to do this in January, unfortunately it didn’t work out, but in the end it came out now.
Wild Wednesday: Other changes of Praguers. Krmenčík goes after Kudela, Hovorka after the operation
Kangaroos have a fairly large fan base in the Beroun region, will you be happy if they chant your name?
I would definitely love to, if they chant my name, most likely they will succeed, that was nice.
The best team here is Králův Dvůr in the third league, which plays for the highest places. Have you been there before and do you know any of his players?
I won’t lie, I haven’t been to any football around yet. As far as I looked at the list, I only know Martin Kraus from the youth team.
You cooperate with the B-English kindergarten and primary school. What exactly are you planning for sports projects?
We are planning a sports academy for children under my name – Hála Sport Academy, which will focus on all-round sports training with a fun and varied program.
Transfers on the route Bohemka – Boleslav: Vaníček za Mužíka
Have you had any training sessions with your children?
As for the sports academy, we want to start in parallel with the new school year from September, but individual football trainings are already underway. Therefore, I would like to address my parents, I would like to adjust my children to sports and create a positive attitude towards sports so that you do not hesitate to contact me for individual or group trainings. Not just football. More information can be found at www.halasportacademy.cz.
And what exactly will you focus on?
More or less, we have set three principles: Efficiency, Health and Versatility. The main goal of our efforts is for all our members to gain a lasting relationship with regular sports for their healthy development and better quality of life.
Are you also preparing a summer camp?
Yes, we are preparing a suburban summer football camp and also a suburban sports camp. There are still a few vacancies for those interested. They will take place on the following dates: football from 1 to 5 August and sports from 8 to 12 August. Both in Beroun and Králové Dvůr.
Currently, there are several players from here in our league, such as Martin Vitík from the young ones or Jan Krob from the older generation. Will you be happy if your academy manages to raise someone like that?
That would be a dream. (smiling)
