World Champions

In a thrilling showdown on the global stage, the Japanese Wheelchair Rugby team has emerged victorious in the semi-final clash against France. The match was a rollercoaster of tension, with both teams battling fiercely, each clutching a 1 to 2 point lead at various junctures. However, as the clock ticked down, the pendulum of fortune decisively swung in Japan’s favor.

Kudos are also due to the World Wheelchair Rugby Champions, the Australians, who demonstrated their remarkable ability. Alongside the Japanese, the Australians' triumph is a testament to the dynamism of the Asia-Pacific region.

This sporting triumph in the World Cup parallels a broader trend in our world today. It's not just in sports, but also in science and technology that the Asia-Pacific region is asserting its dominance. The winners, it seems, have come from these vibrant countries.

Led by dynamic and determined members, the Asia-Pacific region is one of the powerhouses within DPI. Australia and Japan, both instrumental leaders, have shown their mettle. Congratulations to these pioneers. The DPI Europe Region looks forward to the challenges ahead and to working with you both to continue the legacy of excellence.
