Dear friends, respected athletes, coaches, referees, and all representatives of the European sambo community!
On behalf of the European Sambo Federation and on my own behalf, I would like to wish you a happy New Year!
The past year has been a time of serious challenges, remarkable victories, and significant professional growth for European sambo. Thanks to your hard work, determination, and faith in our sport, sambo continues to strengthen its position, unite people from different countries and cultures, and foster strength of character, respect, and sportsmanship.
May the New Year bring you good health, confidence in your abilities, new sporting achievements, and inspiration for further development. I wish that every time you step onto the mat, it will be a step towards personal and professional victory, and that sambo will remain a source of pride, friendship, and mutual understanding.
May 2026 be a year of stability, new opportunities, and exciting international competitions for the entire European sambo family.
Happy New Year!
With best wishes,
Sergey Vladimirovich Eliseev
President of the European Sambo Federation
