Following the proposal of the federal coach, Amiran Kardanov, which was unanimously accepted by the technical committee, Giorgos Pilidis, Giorgos Kougioumtsidis and Aza will compete without qualifying matches in the European U23 Wrestling Championship, which will be held in Bulgaria.
The three athletes made the whole of Greece move after the many and important successes they had in 2021.
Undoubtedly, everyone’s eyes fall on the “golden child” of the Greek struggle. George Pilidis has returned from Saint Dominic and has already started training, in order to continue exactly where he finished in 2021. That is, conquering the top!
George Kougioumtsidis is in Ukraine for a multi-day training camp and games. The “phenomenon” of Greek wrestling, together with his coach, Themis Iakovidis, will participate in an international tournament and the goal, in another event, is to get on the podium.
Azamat Hosonov returns to Athens on Thursday. The “silver” world champion will complete his preparation, under the guidance of Amiran Kardanov, and in the European Championship he wants to double his success.
The decision of the federation is in the one month left until the European Championship for the athletes to prepare as best as possible. In cooperation with the federal coaches and the athletes, a competition plan will be drawn up, in order for them to participate fully ready in the event.
The three athletes, however, will not be the only ones to participate in the European Championship. Qualifying matches are held on Saturday in Larissa and then the entire freestyle team will be formed.
