Athlete Comments & Reviews

“Sport gives you that united feeling”

“At some point sport doesn’t become team, it actually becomes family. It really is a united kind of feeling to come together to sweat, train and work hard for a goal and then be able to do that goal together creates that beautiful kind of team spirit and camaraderie that you can’t share in the office space or in daily life and that’s the beauty of what sport does.”

“It’s like an Olympic experience, open to everyone!”

“The first amazing thing is the Opening ceremonies, for both, Italy and here, because it’s like the Olympics I was never able to be in.”

“We’re all here for the love of sport!”

It is really lovely, because everyone brings something different and everybody brings a different perspective and it’s just so nice to be reminded we are all here for the same reason; the love of sport !
