management leaders
passionate discussion
The World Cup tournament, which is held in the same region the year before the Olympic Games are held, also serves as a rehearsal for the Olympics. Of course, for the participating athletes, each match is a serious competition, but for those involved in the management, it can be said to be the final stage of the preparation activities that have been accumulated over several years with an eye on the Olympics, and it is also a place to actually test their cooperation. .
The Sailing World Cup Series Enoshima Tournament, in which athletes from about 50 countries around the world competed, started from August 25th Sun. to September 1st Sun. The reception hosted by Riviera was held on August 28th Wednesday at Riviera Zushi Marina.
Those who gathered together were World Sailing (formerly International Sailing Federation) event committee chairperson Alistella Fox and other tournament officials, as well as executives from the sailing department from the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee, and the host city of Kanagawa Prefecture. Deputy Governor Asaba, Mayor Suzuki of Fujisawa City, leaders and executives of surrounding local governments, the chairman of the Kanagawa Prefectural Fisheries Federation, representatives of surrounding yacht clubs, and other local collaborators.
As it was a gathering of top leaders, the speeches were friendly but also had a lot of weight to them. ``I was able to confirm once again the unity of all parties involved.'' ``Thank you for creating a place where all members could meet.'' ``It was also significant that representatives from surrounding clubs and fishermen came.'' ...and received high praise. We also received a congratulatory telegram from Congressman Shinjiro Koizumi, who understands the challenges of hosting a local event. In order to work together towards the success of the Games, the leaders transcended their differences in position and had a peaceful yet passionate discussion.
