The first edition of the “Rome Tor Vergata Games” took place on 13-14 March in Rome, Italy.

The competitions were very intense, well organized and all the matches were held in compliance with the rules and Fair Play principals. The atmosphere of the tournament was very friendly. Players and fans actively supported teams, chanted chants, made a wave. The players before each match respectfully greeted each other and made friendly joint photos after each match.

There was organised the dinner for the Heads of Delegation of the Rome Tor Vergata Games with attendance of the former UEFA Champions League player Federico Masi. The PCU Committee thanks the CUS Roma Tor Vergata and especially the President Manuel Onorati and the Secretary General Filippo Corti for the wonderful hospitality and congratulations for the organization. Looking forward to further cooperation.
