Attention: open in a new window. PrintE-mail
Very unexpectedly, WMA President Cesare Beccalli died on December 26, 2007 at the age of 73, while at his winter residence in Brazil.

This is the second time in the current election period that the World Masters Athletics association lost one of its most prolific experts. In November 2005, Torsten Carlius died (then WMA Secretary), and now the masters movement has lost another most respected leader.
