This first gathering will then be repeated annually and enriched with further initiatives and opportunities. The aim is to promote these ancient disciplines and introduce more and more young people to contact sports.
The deputy mayor of Treviso, Alessandro Manera, declared: «Treviso has a great tradition in martial arts, with numerous realities that deserve to be valorised and which allow young people to emerge and distinguish themselves also at a national and international level. Bringing activities from gyms to the city’s busiest squares aims to promote sport as well-being, discipline and values. I thank the sports clubs who participated with enthusiasm, and I am sure that the initiative will be replicated in other locations in the center and neighborhoods.”
