I am pleased to announce that Mariano Travaglino has joined the IBSA administration as our new sports manager. This appointment marks a significant step in our ongoing efforts to professionalize our management team.

As we prepare for the upcoming cycle leading to the 2028 Los Angeles Games and the 2027 IBSA World Games, we aim to enhance our coordination across all sports disciplines. Mariano’s role will be crucial in aligning our sports committees with other divisions such as anti-doping, classification, media, and marketing.

I am confident that Mariano will effectively bridge the sports administration and the IBSA board, bringing fresh energy to our organization. Please join me in wishing him success in his new role.
