FITA explained the current concept in place with our Show Director, Mr Rocky Bester, and Sports Announcer George Tekmitchov. LOCOG explained the process they put in place and will now work together with FITA in the next five years.   The FITA Secretary General stated that “London really shows the way forward with an OCOG fully understanding the need for a well developed sports presentation.
