05 December 2020: The Italian Deaf Sport Federation (FSSI) together with the Italian Paralympic Committee (CIP), the municipality of Pescara and the Local Organizing Committee accepted this great challenge: organizing the 12th EUROPEAN DEAF BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS.
They wanted to give to our deaf athletes the chance to fulfill their dream of participating in a European competition, saving their right to attend an event awaited for four years with sacrifice, hard training and the pride of representing their country without distinctions of any kind.
