TORINO 2006 PARALYMPICS WINTER GAMES March 10-19

[BOREALIS]

Ice Sledge Hockey Final also Broadcast in Piazza San Carlo

Mar 16 2006
Torino Esposizioni Fully Booked

All seats have been taken for the final of Ice Sledge Hockey on Saturday March 18th which will be held at 20.30 in Torino Esposizioni. Great success for a Paralympic sport among the most watched by people from Torino and tourists flocking to the city for the occasion.

For this reason the COMPARTO board of councillors, the Organizing Committee of the Torino 2006 Paralympic Winter Games, to make all those fans who have not the fortune of a seat for the final happy, has decided to project the competition which will assign the gold medal on a mega screen in Piazza San Carlo.

The first matches held last week-end were completely sold out. There has been very warm support from the stands where the Paralympic hockey champions are competing, thanks to the involvement of thousands of school children who have contributed with their warmth and participation to creating an Olympic atmosphere.
