Roma, 07-08 giugno 2014
La kermesse dei più piccoli porta a Roma seimila persone. Sport, giochi, divertimento e sani principi.
Un bellissimo week-end di sport, gente entusiasta, gesta memorabili.
Due giorni faticosi, ma ne è valsa la pena, la passione ha superato la stanchezza e la fatica dei preparativi.
Il torneo Kim e Liù, giunto alla nona edizione, nella splendide cornice del Giulio Onesti di Roma, ha visto partecipare più di 2500 bambini tra quelli iscritti alla gara di taekwondo e quelli impegnati con le attività ludiche.
Gli incontri (ben 1120 in due giorni) hanno entusiasmato sia il pubblico che gli addetti ai lavori e i campioni in erba insieme ai loro coach hanno saputo dimostrare spirito sportivo, lealtà, autocontrollo e concentrazione. Ma l’immagine più bella è che dopo essersi affrontati sul quadrato, i bambini hanno ripreso a giocare insieme, come se niente fosse, incuranti di chi avesse vinto o meno.
Quest’anno poi il Kim e Liù ha aperto le porte anche ai piccoli atleti europei che fanno parte della Union Taekwondo Union (ETU) e sorpresa nella sorpresa, ha ospitato anche la squadra dimostrativa del Kukkiwon.
Infatti, in occasione del 130° anniversario delle relazioni Italo-Coreane, la Federazione Italiana Taekwondo insieme all’ambasciata di Corea in italia ha inviato in Italia, la più spettacolare tra le squadre dimostrative di Taekwondo nel mondo, quella del Kukkiwon.
Ma le sorprese non si sono esaurite in questo modo, i colpi di scena sono continuati con l’arrivo sui campi di gara dei Campioni Olimpici, Carlo Molfetta e Mauro Sarmiento!
I bambini sono letteralmente impazziti e hanno fatto a gara per richiedere gli autografi ai loro idoli, e loro, mai stanchi e con il sorriso stampato in viso non hanno esitato ad accontentare i piccoli fans.
L'appuntamento è per l'anno prossimo con la decima edizione del torneo di bambini più grande e più famoso d'Europa. Arrivederci al Kim e Liù X
