Athletes Committee: List of candidates completed

Seven candidates for the new composition of the ESC Athletes Committee have been nominated by five National Federations. The members will be elected by nearly 1000 participants of the 2025 European Championship in Châteauroux.

The current Chair of the Athletes Committee David Kostelecký, Olympic Champion from Czechia, Silvana Maria Stanco, Paris 2024 Silver medalist from Italy and Arina Kuznetsova, European Champion from Russia are running to represent the Shotgun athletes.

Riccardo Armiraglio, silver medalist at ISSF World Cup from Italy, Laura Georgetta Ilie, European Games Champion from Roumania and Ilia Marsov, European Champion from Russian are contending to become representatives of the Rifle athletes.

Panagiota Charalampous from Cyprus is the only candidate to represent the Pistol athletes.

The results of the voting will be announced by the end of the Championship.

According to the ESC Athletes Committee Guidelines, it consists of seven (7) members: two (2) representing each of the Rifle, Pistol and Shotgun disciplines and one (1) the Running Target.  In case the full number of seven (7) members is not achieved during the elections, in order to ensure a fair balance in terms of disciplines, gender, equity etc, the ESC Presidium can supplement the Committee with a maximum of three (3) members.

The ESC encourages all participating athletes in Châteauroux to actively take part in the election and make their voice heard. The new Athletes’ Committee will play an important role in voicing athlete concerns and contributing to the development of our sport.
