| WKF ATHLETES COMMISSION |
The Directing Committee of the World Karate Federation has decided to
form an Athletes Commission, which will be under the co-ordination of
George Yerolimpus, WKF General Secretary and will be chaired by the well known athlete, Christophe
Pinna of France. Delta's Lisa Ling, former national champion and Director
of Athletes Canada, has been picked to represent the Pan American Continent
on this new historic commission.
.
This commission will consist of 7 members: Mr Yerolimpus as liaison with
the WKF,
Christophe Pinna as chairman and 5 members, one from each continent. Lisa
has been chosen as representative of the American continent, because of the
excellent presentation and effort she made during 2008 Organizing Committee
bid for Toronto.
"The intention is to form a group of young and competent people, karate
athletes with international presence and recognition, who will promote the
international movement of our sport and who will create the administrative
structure of
this movement.
" I hope that you will accept this invitation and will contribute in our
effort to define the objectives and goals of our sports movement, as it is
required by every organized and modern sport nowadays." Mr. Yerolimpus
stated in a message to Lisa.
It is expected that the members of the commission will meet at least
once a year during the World Championships and will present a full report
on the activities of the Athletes Commission in every WKF Congress.
