“We have decided to hold two main continental tournaments simultaneously this year – the European SAMBO Championships and the European Cadets, Youth and Junior SAMBO Championships. This practice proved its effectiveness last year, when continental competitions were held in the Serbian city of Novi Sad. Being on the same arena with more experienced sambists, young athletes will be able to quickly adapt to the future transition to senior teams.
An important feature of the European Championships this year will be that it is a qualifying tournament for the participation of sambists in the World Martial Arts Games, which will be held in October in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia).
Sambists from several weight categories will fight for the title of European champions and a coveted ticket to the Multisport Games. Medals and the right to perform in Saudi Arabia will be played not only in traditional weight categories. For the first time at the European Championships, a tournament in Combat SAMBO among women (up to 65 kg) will be held, men, in turn, will measure their strength in the absolute weight category (over 88 kg) in Sport SAMBO,” FIAS President Vasily Shestakov said.
