I would like to thank our Polisportiva I’Giglio sports club, and in particular Stefano Cinci, for their constant commitment to promoting training courses in various disciplines and for organizing events of this level. Finally, I would like to thank FederKombat for choosing us for such an important event, which gives us the opportunity to show our hospitality to an outside audience and to raise awareness and appreciation of our sports facilities.”
