Thank you, Sri Lanka!
By the end of November Erwin Reis, Monika Reis and Thomas Bachmann participated at an FIG course for „Gymnastics for All“ in Negombo/Sri Lanka and could present approx. 50 delegates from the seven nations Afghanistan, Iran, Jordan, Malaysia, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Thailand the current planning for the World Gymnaestrada. Thanks to the excellent organisation of the Sri Lanka gymnastics federation the entire course was a great success as we found lots of new friends in Negombo.
