The event took place last weekend under the perfect organization of the sports clubs “Bultras Fight Club” and “Star Team”, as well as with the assistance of the Bulgarian Kickboxing and Muay Thai Confederation (BKKMT).
In second place was Greece, which won a total of 129 medals (34 gold, 35 silver and 60 bronze), and Hungary completed the top 3 with 69 awards (26 gold, 22 silver and 21 bronze).
In the club ranking of a total of 110 teams, the capital’s “Star team” took first place, followed by another Bulgarian club “Masaru”, and the kickboxers of the Hungarian “Halker Kirali team” came third.
The prestigious competition was the last of the year out of a total of four included in the calendar of the World Kickboxing Federation WAKO.
On 8 tatami mats and 2 rings in the Plovdiv sports hall “Kolodrum”, nearly 2000 participants competed for three days, who were evaluated by 100 of the best international referees in kickboxing.
The historic hosting of our country paid off with huge success, both by winning a large number of medals and with the highest rating for the organization of a European Kickboxing Cup to date.
WAKO announced that the competition will be held in Bulgaria again next year, as the native kickboxing and muay thai confederation is waiting for the signing of a 4-year contract to host the European Cup.
