Dear WAKO Europe Members,
Winter holidays are peaceful time of the year where we spend time with our loved ones and reflect on the year that has passed.
Our sport has seen great successes despite the pandemic. The best things which has happened were inclusion of kickboxing in the 2023 European Games and official IOC recognition. We could not achieve this without our members passionate about developing and promoting our sport.
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. To all who celebrate Christmas, I wish Merry Christmas and to all I wish Happy New Year!
Istvan Kiraly
WAKO Europe President
