We have a long list of top rated athletes who compete with each other for the medals enhancing the elevation of the racing level as high as possible, athletes such as Dimitris Papadimitriou, bronze winner of World Championship in San Isidro Argentina and Katerina Nikolaki silver winner in Balcan championship Bucharest Romania
Our effort is enhanced by the exquisite location of the club, at the outskirts of Athens. The athletes along with their escorts will experience the sporting ideals in their cradle. The venue located at Porto Rafti (http://www.iopor.com/new/index.php/blue-greece-cup/local-accomodation-info) is just 40 minutes away from Athens, 15 minutes from Athens Airport and just a breath away from very important archaeological sites.
Those that will join the "fair play" in the waters of Porto Rafti will experience the utmost hospitality of the local society that is deeply engaged in the reinforcement of the event.
