A bridge leading towards Great Britain
On Thursday April, 12, 2018, a meeting took place in Stansted, between a delegation of the Panathlon Challenge Foundation and the International President Mr. Pierre Zappelli together with Mrs. Simona Callo, General Secretary of Panathlon International in a very relaxed and collaborative atmosphere.
Both Associations not only have in common the name, but share the same goals and objectives. From this perspective, the decision was reached to prepare a Memorandum of Understanding, in order to cooperate, recognize each other, organize joint events and participate actively in various sporting events of the individual Associations. The Panathlon Challenge Foundation is engaged in the organization of sporting events for the disabled in Britain.
There had been previous contacts between the Clubs of Milan and the Person in charge, but the time was not ripe enough, thus the Club of London never took off. The present Management listened closely to what expressed by President Zappelli ,welcomed and supported Panathlon International’s Philosophy, its Ethical Charts and Values. In this respect a first step has been made.
The main aim is to prepare a partnership agreement to submit to the President’s Committee and Panathlon International’s International Board so as to proceed by signing the same, hoping that it will enable us to set up a club in Great Britain.
