“Finally the great promotional work carried out during these past few years to make the whole world understand the true worth of Roller Sports is beginning to bear fruits. The statements of both Mr. Malagò and IOC President Thomas Bach, together with the continuing and growing success of our international events are the clear confirmation of this”.
