ICSBF - World federation for equality in sport founded under the auspices of the CSIT

In his inaugural speech following his re-election at the 45th CSIT Congress in November 2023 in Barcelona, CSIT-President Bruno Molea announced the founding of the "International Catch'n Serve Ball Sports Federation".

A world sports umbrella organisation with a democratic structure to which everyone is invited who plays Cachibol (Catchball, Newcomb).., which originated in South America. Or who wants to start playing Catch'n Serve, a team sport in which the ball is caught and thrown over the net.

The claim: "Play, catch, connect for equality in sports!" is also intended to appeal to new target groups. Serve doesn't just mean serving the ball and playing on, but also using this sport to support those groups across the countries that are needed for equality in sport. Important measures that Bruno Molea and his new team have planned for the next period.
