I’m going to support my team at the HMB World Championship “Battle of the Nations”-2015! I try to do as much as possible for our team. In fact, all the civil medieval clothes and base of the armour they used at “Battle of the Nations”-2014 were made by me! The colors that I used were my fighting strategy, but it’s a secret!

And I massaged all our fighters after battles, using a special oil that was made by me. Also, I tried to help with organizational issues before the trip and

during the trip to Trogir. The HMB World Championship “Battle of the Nations”-2014 in Croatia was the first time abroad for many of our fighters. So, I was a guide and interpreter for the National Team of Mexico.

And, of course, I helped them to put on and take off their armour sets. And I helped to bring water after the fights. Many of them called me “Mom Jhancy” because I took care of them! Of course, they took care of me too! We are a very good team taking care of each other! Of course, I will help my friends from the National Team of Mexico this year and I’m sure that they will show great results on the lists.

As for me, “Battle of the Nations”-2014 experience was amazing for fighters and supporters because there you could meet many interesting and amazing people and everybody was like a big family.

In the end, I would like to say good luck to every team and thank all of those teams that helped us in Europe, namely Teams of Austria, Australia, Croatia, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, New Zealand, Serbia and the UK.
