RIGHT BEFORE THE BATTLE
The real action of the 2nd World Championship is about to begin.
Yesterday, on the 16th of September, all the participants had finally
come together. 16 teams have come to the event and their leaders had
gathered at the conference hall of the Palace of Culture and Sport of
the Deaf at 15:00 sharp.
The meeting was opened with the speech of Grigor Grigoryan, the head of
the championship’s organizing committee. He had warmly welcomed everyone
and talked about some specificities of the tournament. The president of
ICDS Donalda Ammons had spoken after that. She had kindly accepted the
organizing committee’s invitation to Yerevan and seemed quite pleased
with that. Doctor Ammons had noted that this championship had been very
well organized and said she was hoping that the committee would manage
to keep it up the same way right to the end. The representative of ICDS
Dogan Odzemir and that of ICDS TD for wrestling Mehmet Bilgili had
spoken of some technical points and then the audience was able to ask
any questions they had. There were not so many, though.
These official events are very important but the 200 people have come to
Yerevan too see something else, something much more exciting and that is
surely the contest! The first fight is today at 10:00 and that will be
the real start of World Championship.
