Congratulations also to the elected executive committee members. Although naturally there some push and shove, at the end of the day, the election was by consensus. This showed a lot of maturity on the part of the members. Congratulations. Thanks to our leaders’ commitment, the Kingdom of Morocco’s generosity, its high level of organization, the general assembly, and the first edition of the Africa Schools championship was a smashing success.
