An appointment rewarding the efficiency and organizational capacity of our Country, a nomination considered successful for its technical proposal and for the commitment and the attention to details. CSAIn and the city of Riccione are ready to inaugurate a sort of Year Zero for the EFCS (European Federation for Company Sport) movement in Italy. Its members are pioneers of a world that in Italy is still living an embryonic phase but, at European level, may boast of extraordinary numbers.
For this reason I like to consider the 2015 event as sort of 1960 Paralympics and comparing what Rome represented for the disabled people sports movement to what Riccione will be able to represent for the European Federation for Company Sport.
The approaching path towards the 20th edition of EFCS is officially going to get underway in Prague, in few days. The 2015 project will be presented showing, once again, the outstanding qualities of our Country. Riccione will ready to welcome more than 8 thousand athletes coming from thirty nations, confident and aware to be capable of transforming a sport event into an occasion in which the values of competitiveness, aggregation and socialization will be fully experienced.
I would like to wish my personal and heartfelt good luck to all of you. I hope that the 20th edition of EFCS Games may represent and extraordinary opportunity to spread the values of sport, to promote a concept of sport present in every aspect of life, and to make a first and significant step to create a movement aimed at enhancing the sports activity in the business world.
