Alicante will host Amateur World Championships
Mr. Juan Pinilla the National Direstor of ISKA SPAIN announced officially that the 2010 ISKA Amateur World Championship will be hosted in Alicante, Spain 2nd – 7th November. Mr. Pinilla said it’s a pleasure and an honour to invite and welcome our ISKA members from around the globe to the 2010 World Championships here in Alicante
As many of the nations of the World gather together with their national teams in Alicante, to challenge their peers under the banner of sport to become the best of the best, we can only reflect on how far the ISKA has progressed on all 5 continents. This is due to the tireless work and effort that has been put in by it’s members on a day to day basis.
Sport has no racial, social or political barriers, which means that it is the perfect way for all men and women , boys and girls to achieve amazing results, regardless of race, creed or colour. The opportunity to represent one’s country in the name of sport at an international level is probably one of the greatest achievements an individual can make. The pressure that the competitors have at this level is enormous, and goes far beyond normal physical endurance. To win, especially at such a high level, competitors will have to tap into inner resources that their years of training will have prepared them for.
I hope that the ISKA can continue to stride forwards with determination and a positive attitude in order to keep ourselves at the centre of the stage for martial arts.
