1 overseas: The term "overseas" refers to land or countries far from your native country. The term specifically refers to countries "across a sea or ocean", however the term can be used to describe a country "abroad". In this report, Bjorn mentions that frequent "overseas" travel has helped Swedish people learn English.
2 outstanding: The word "outstanding" means excellent or prominent. In the report, Brent says that Sweden is famous for "its outstanding ice-hockey players". He means that Sweden is well known for having very good ice-hockey players. Note that "outstanding" has other meanings in different contexts.
3 foreign: The term "foreign" refers to anyone or anything coming from another country. In this report, Bjorn talks about Sweden's "strong foreign trade policy". Other examples: America's foreign trade policy is an open system where there are few restrictions on trade with other countries.
4 compulsory: The word "compulsory" refers to something "required" or "obligatory". Bjorn reports that in Sweden, "English has actually been a compulsory subject in schools for 60 years". He means that students in Sweden are required to learn English at school. Example: It is compulsory to wear white tennis shoes when walking on the tennis courts.

Excerpt: I propose entering a Delavigne sports team into a dodgeball competition that is taking place next month. I think a little bit of exercise will do us all some good.
...Training will be held in the staff gym next Tuesday at 5pm on the dot.

This is correct. Bruno uses the idiom "on the dot" to refer to the time of the training session. "On the dot" describes something exact or precise, and is generally used to refer to the time. Example: Our train left the station at 3 o'clock on the dot. A "dot" is the small round mark made by a pen or pencil, it is also the name of the "." in ".com".
This is correct. Bruno writes "I think a little bit of exercise will do us all some good", meaning playing dodgeball will improve the physical condition of the Delavigne staff. "(A bit of exercise) will do you good" means that exercise will have a positive effect on you.
This is incorrect. Bruno writes that the Delavigne staff are "invited to exhibit their dodgeball skills", which does not mean that they are invited to an "exhibition" (or an "exhibit" in American English). To "exhibit (your skills)" is to present or make public your skills. Bruno wants the Delavigne staff to show their competency at dodgeball.
This is incorrect. Bruno writes that "presence (at the special training session) is compulsory." The word "compulsory" refers to something "required" or "obligatory". Example: It is compulsory for Russian women tennis players to be young, pretty and blond.
