'What will that single federation mean for the athlete?'

The work of the VA featured extensively in two combat sports podcasts this week. The main topic was the process towards a single federation that has now been set in motion.

VA director Farid Gamei joined Warrior Talk, hosted by Remy Bonjasky, together with Nieky Holzken and others. They discussed current developments in kickboxing. This naturally also covered the matters the VA is actively working on, such as the establishment of one strong combat sports federation. Among other things, Gamei answered the question of what athletes will notice from this.

Peter Kwint was a member of the VA board for many years and is currently part of the supervisory board. He was a guest on In de Ring, the combat sports podcast of the newspaper AD. They talked about his passion for MMA and, again, about the creation of that single federation, which is intended to put an end to forty years of division in Dutch combat sports.
