Türkiye was a true celebration of sports!
Istanbul shone last weekend with the 2026 Balkans Championships. The WOW Hotel hosted an epic competition, bringing together the region’s top athletes for a vibrant day of elite performance and an unforgettable show for everyone in attendance.
We were honored by the presence of great leaders of our sport: President Santonja and the President of the Balkan countries, Mr. Gabriel Toncean, who joined the athletes in this highly successful edition.
Congratulations to the organizing team, Federation President Mr. Koray Girgin, and everyone who made this successful championship possible. It was an exceptional example of international participation and friendship, showing the entire world the power of our sport in Türkiye.
