A vision clouded by obstacles, doubts, and the practicalities of making it work in a small country. But dreams, my friends, donโ€™t become reality without brave hearts and strong leaders. It takes unwavering belief, bold action, and a community willing to rise above ego, misconceptions, and fear of sharing.Today, I stand proud as Chairwoman, on the verge of my departure, to say: ๐˜„๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ฑ ๐—ถ๐˜. We wrote the scheme. We supported it. And we found the one coach willing to take on this challengeโ€”not for himself, not for a single team, but for the common good of Cyprus.To Coach Simo Hill : your courage to step into this role, to work with integrity, to leave prejudice behind, and to share your knowledge selflessly is a testament to the strength of character and leadership our sport embodies. I will forever be grateful to have had you by my side to turn this dream into a reality. ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ.But this is not just about leadership; itโ€™s about the fighters. Our paddlers, who have shown relentless spirit and unwavering commitment, are preparing for a challenge unlike any otherโ€”the World Championships in Brandenburg, Germany, next July. They have stayed the course, pushed through hardships, and poured their hearts into representing Cyprus. They are warriors who paddle not just for victory, but for the love of the sport, for their country, and for the dragon boat community.Now, itโ€™s our turn to give back. Let us stand behind them as they strive to make history. Let us cheer for them louder than ever. Let us show them that we see their sacrifice, their dedication, and their courage.As I prepare to pass the torch, I feel an immense sense of pride knowing that this ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ด๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐˜† will carry on.
