Italian SAMBO Championships Held in Riccione

The Adriatic Riviera city of Riccione played host to the Italian SAMBO Championships on March 8th. Athletes across different age categories – cadets, youth, juniors, and seniors – competed on the mats of the Riccione Play Hall.

The tournament was organized by Federkombat, which ran three national championships simultaneously across the disciplines under its umbrella: SAMBO, Kickboxing, and Muay Thai. The event drew considerable attention both inside and outside the arena, with fans packing the stands and sports enthusiasts tuning in to follow the action live online.
