Das Sportforum Solothurn vom 3. November 2025 konzentrierte sich auf das Schwingen und diskutierte, wie es sich von einem traditionellen Sport zu einem Trendsport entwickelt hat. An der Veranstaltung nahmen rund 200 Personen teil und sie wurde vom Panathlon Club Solothurn perfekt organisiert.

Moderiert wurde die Debatte von Peter Wüthrich, Präsident des Panathlon-Distrikts Schweiz und Liechtenstein, der mit Humor und treffenden Fragen interessante Aussagen von den vier Schwingern einholte.
Unter der Moderation von Peter Wüthrich, Präsident des Panathlon, nahmen an der Debatte teil: Matthias Glarner (Schwingerkönig 2016); Florian Gnägi (117-facher Krönungssieger); Marius Frank (junger, kürzlich gekrönter Schwinger); Daniela Heussi (Co-Direktorin der ESAF 2025, dem Eidgenössischen Schwingfest).

European Evening of Sport strengthens partnership between EU and Olympic Movement
Published in News from Panathlon International
Brussels, 17 November 2025 – Thanks to the fruitful relations that continue to exist between Panathlon International, the European and International Olympic Committees and the European Institutions, International President Giorgio Chinellato – together with District President Paul Standaert, President of EFPM and Past President of Club Wallonie-Bruxelles Philippe Housiaux and other Belgian Panathletes – was invited to the European Evening of Sport, held in Brussels on 17 November. During the evening, President Chinellato was able to present Panathlon International to IOC President Kirsty Coventry and engage in discussions with the many personalities present.
The event, hosted by the EOC EU Office at the Representation of Baden-Württemberg to the European Union, brought together over 300 leaders from the Olympic Movement, European institutions and the world of sport, with the aim of celebrating shared values and strengthening cooperation between European sport and EU institutions.
The evening was attended by, among others, IOC President Kirsty Coventry, President of the European Olympic Committees Spyros Capralos and European Commissioner for Intergenerational Equity, Youth, Culture and Sport Glenn Micallef. All 49 European Olympic Committees were invited to the meeting, dedicated to the theme “Sport is more than a Game”, to reflect on the unifying role of sport in a complex and ever-changing global context.
One of the highlights was the panel discussion ‘More Than a Game: The Role of Sports in Challenging Times’, which highlighted the impact of sport on public health, education, diplomacy and inclusion, reiterating the need for strong partnerships and coordinated policies to fully realise its potential.
The evening concluded with a tribute to the outgoing Director of the EOC EU Office, Folker Hellmund, and a lively networking session. The event reaffirmed the shared commitment of the European Union and the Olympic Movement to making sport a tool that inspires, educates and unites communities across Europe.
On the same days, the International Board also held its meeting online. After an initial update on the activities carried out by the President, the Board Members and the General Secretariat, the Board addressed a number of strategic issues. The Board reviewed the international relations established with both the European Community and the International Olympic Committee, as well as the projects currently underway.
Particular attention was paid to the review of the project “Fair Play restarts from school”, entrusted to the delegate Matteo Lazzizzera, which will be re-proposed and relaunched in the coming days. The Charter of Women in Sport, proposed by the Brazil District, was also discussed. It received unanimous approval and will be submitted to the PI Culture, Research and Education Commission for possible adoption by the entire Movement.
The proposals for amendments to PI Statutes put forward by the District Italy were then examined, pending a discussion between the District Presidents, with the hope of joint work that could lead to a shared revision to be presented at the Extraordinary Assembly.
During the meeting, the new Working Groups dedicated to training and voluntary contributions were also approved. The Treasurer reported that expenses are currently under control and fully within the parameters set at the beginning of the year; the situation regarding Club payments was also analysed. Space was also dedicated to the Ghent programme, with a presentation by Paul Standaert, President of the District Belgium, who presented the new programme to the Board, updated on the basis of recently emerging needs, and requested its approval.
The Secretary General also announced that a questionnaire prepared by Alexandros Brousiakis, a young student on an Erasmus internship at the General Secretariat, would shortly be sent to all District Presidents, Governors and Club Presidents. The initiative aims to gather useful information for the preparation of a report highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of PI, with the aim of supporting its continuous improvement.
This intense “relay” of meetings involved the International Board, the President’s Committee, the District Presidents’ Committee and the General Secretariat in numerous sessions spread over two days, confirming Panathlon International’s ongoing commitment to pursuing its institutional objectives.

During the meeting, the President also recalled the upcoming PI events: the Symposium on 12 February in Milan, organised together with several organisations recognised by the IOC on the occasion of the Milan Cortina Olympics and Paralympics, and the organisation of the International Congress Assembly and the 75th anniversary celebration of PI, to be held in Ghent (B) from 4 to 6 June 2026, hoping to meet them in person.
