OF ATHLETICS

We are in a time that has aff ected all human activities, not excluding top sport. The little we are used to, athletes can now fully do, from training to competing, including trips for both. That is why I am very glad to be able to greet you from this place and introduce the national team for Toruń. The top athletic event (with the signifi cant exception of the World Half Marathon Championships) was last held a year and a half ago in Doha. The organization of the European Indoor Championships in Toruń is a milestone for several reasons. It is essential that an event of this scale takes place at all. Although in a restricted mode, without spectators. I am proud that we prepared competitive opportunities for Czech athletes at home last year, when we were able to organize almost all national championships. Conditions for training and competitions were diffi cult even in the indoor season in the Czech Republic. However, the Czech Athletic Federation negotiated an exception to organize the Athletics Indoor League with four legs and the national indoor championships. Together with meetings in Ostrava, Nehvizdy and Kladno, Czech athletes had the opportunity to qualify for the European Indoor Championships in Toruń. I would like to thank the athletes and coaches that they were able to prepare for the peak of the indoor athletic season in diffi cult conditions. I believe that the Czech athletic team, with more than 20 members, will gain experience in Toruń and will be successful.
