Athlete Comments & Reviews

“It’s like an Olympic experience, open to everyone!”

“The first amazing thing is the Opening ceremonies, for both, Italy and here, because it’s like the Olympics I was never able to be in.”

“Sport keeps your mind active”

“Sport keeps you fit, keeps your mind active, all those sort of things. It gives you something to work towards, so I’ll do it as long as I possibly can really.”

“As a supporter we also have such a great time!”

“As a spouse we also get exposed to different people in different countires and get to socialise with different people, so it’s lovely. We have such a great time!”
