Just like the legendary English green lawn which must be mowed and watered everyday for centuries. Looking from outside Szombathely did provide no miracles either for the wrestling world – just perfect organization of prestigious and important competitions. From inside we see very well the ingredients of success, the efforts, the ideas, and permanent endeavour of improvement. This is the secret why the wrestling family is always pleased to see when Szombathely appears as organizer in the FILA calendar.   The big project ahead of us in Vas County and the capital of Hungarian wrestling sport which foresee two major events, the GR World Cup and the Golden Grand Prix will see familiar names and faces from the wrestling top including well-known athletes from Korea, Iran, Georgia, Russia and the United States where world-class conditions, friendly atmosphere shall be waiting for them.   As host I am under a bearable double pressure because I do not have any reason to be concerned either about the level of organization or the Hungarian squad. Both are professionals who know and do their job very well.   The big challenge arrives from the mat. The first five GR teams from the 2007 Baku World Championships have the right to send their delegations to the World Cup. The Hungarian wrestlers shall face several world-class wrestlers during the days in Szombathely where all matches will be tough and everybody have to be concentrated just like at the the Olympic Games in August. Our fighting spirit will be very high and „to lose from the better is not a shame” definitely will not be written on our flags. Though with no medals in Baku our wrestlers finished first with four on the list of quota-winning countries tied with two of our guests, USA and Russia.   Our Olympic hopes shall be fighting ruling world champions in Arena Savaria which is going to be an enormous task but if they receive the necessary support from the full crowd they might accomplish successfully this important mission on their way leading to Beijing.       Dr. Csaba Hegedüs President Hungarian Wrestling Federation
