Athlete Comments & Reviews
“Everybody cheers for each other!”
“I loved the mood of everybody cheering for everyone, like I was watching in the stands the M70 triple jump and everybody was cheering whatever the nationality, whatever the performance and I really like that about the Masters movement. It doesn’t matter.”
“These Games are for everyone!”
“There’s a lot of positives to play these tournaments and as I said before it’s more about participation, it’s about the vibe, just enjoying playing sport, regardless of the standard. There is something there for everyone. Everyone can join in.”
“Playing sport helps in daily life”
“I think competing is part of life. Life is all about competing, learning how to roll with the punches and get up and fight again for another day. And that’s what sports is all about.”
