Session in Singapore was a real important step for us, we knew exactly how difficult it would have been for us to set up a valuable candidature and a presentation of our sport in such a short time, yet it was utterly important to be visible, and not to miss this uncomparable chance. We knew we had to put together a team in power of bringing roller sports up to becoming an olympic sport. The new criteria implemented by the I.O.C. at Singapore pushed the I.O.C. itself to a self criticism, it was in fact not one but two sports dropping the olympic programme, and this is giving us a strong sign. From now on judgement shall come on the work carried out: the time for granted rights is over. Comte Jacques Rogge, The I.O.C. President himself, (as you can see from the attached letter), underlines - just a few days away from the Session - that the match is not over, our sport shall be once again evaluated in the I.O.C. Session determining the 2016 Olympic programme.
