Dear WAKO Europe Member!!
To me, the winter holiday represents a peaceful time to spend time with our loved ones and reflect on the year that has passed. Our sport has seen great successes despite the pandemic affecting our day to day lives, such as the inclusion in the 2023 European Games and the full IOC recognition. These could not have been achieved without our persistent members passionate about developing and promoting our sport of Kickboxing. Let us take a moment to value the past accomplishments and set goals for the coming year. I sincerely thank you all for your dedicated work and I hope you can recover during the holiday so that we can set to develop our beloved sport invigorated in the new year.
