Podsjećamo da je ovo prvo izdanje EYOF-a nakon 2019. godine kada su domaćini bili Sarajevo i Istočno Sarajevo. Sam Festival se smatra vitalnim korakom u razvoju sporta mladih gdje se sportisti po prvi put susreću sa velikim multisportskim takmičenjem.  Učešće na EYOF-u u mnogobrojnim slučajevima bude prekretnica u karijeri mladih sportista, od kojih značajan procenat izbori učešće na Olimpijskim igrama.

Našem timu čestitamo na učešću i nastupima i želimo mnogo sreće u nastavku sportske karijere.
