Karl Izzo Represents ASA At European Aquatics Sharing Experiences Forum

Karl Izzo, President of the Aquatic Sports Association of Malta, represented the Association at the inaugural European Aquatics Sharing Experiences Forum, held in Baku, Azerbaijan, as part of the European Aquatics Congress 2026.

Participating in the panel discussion “Hosting Better Events – The LOC Experience,” Mr Izzo shared Malta’s experience and organisational expertise in hosting major international aquatic competitions, highlighting the importance of strategic planning, effective cooperation and the efficient management of resources.

In its official report, European Aquatics specifically acknowledged Malta among the countries whose event-hosting experiences contributed to the discussions, recognising the value of exchanging knowledge and best practices to deliver more sustainable, efficient and successful international competitions.

This recognition reflects Malta’s growing contribution to the European aquatic sporting community and reinforces ASA’s commitment to positioning our country as a trusted and capable host of prestigious international sporting events.

A proud moment for Maltese aquatic sport and another important step in strengthening Malta’s presence on the international stage.
