“This year we managed to take another step forward in the development and popularization of SAMBO by holding the Asia and Oceania Championships in the East Asian region of Macau. I am very glad that the tournament was held at a high organizational level and became a real sports festival for all participants: athletes, coaches, referees and, of course, spectators.

Medals of the championship were won by representatives of 15 countries, which indicates a gradual equalization of the level of professional skills among athletes. In addition to the traditionally high results of representatives of the countries of Central Asia, I would like to note the successes of the national teams of Korea and India, who showed good results in Combat SAMBO, as well as the Filipino athletes who won two silver medals in women’s Sport SAMBO,” noted the head of the Sambo Union of Asia and Oceania Alamjon Mullaev.
