Greetings from the APDSC Secretariat in Budapest, Hungary!
APDSC Vice President Dennis Tan and Chief Sports Director David Peters attended two fruitful and insightful days of the ICSD Workshop at the iconic Puskás Aréna in Budapest, Hungary. The two-day workshop covered several important topics relating to the development, management and future direction of Deaf sports. Day 1 - Road to the Deaflympics: Qualification Systems & World Rankings - Hosting the Future: Host Bid Procedures & Long-Term Event Planning - Anti-Doping Commission - Developing an Effective Athletes’ Commission Day 2 - The New OMS - From Qualification to Competition - Our Shared Responsibility in Deaf Sports Both days provided valuable learning experiences, meaningful discussions and opportunities to exchange knowledge and ideas with international Deaf sports representatives. APDSC is committed to bringing these valuable insights back to the Asia-Pacific region and working closely with ICSD and our member federations to promote the continued growth and development of Deaf sports. Together, let us shape a stronger future for Deaf sports!
