Mihai Covaliu decided to retire from the competition and he would like to train his colleagues


Yesterday started the sabre National Championships in Floreasca Hall from Bucharest, Mihai Covaliu, who won the Olympic bronze at Beijing, was presented in the hall, but didn’t enter for the competition.

-
I do not participate to these contests!, said the swordsman.

- Did you spread your holiday?
- This is also a way of saying…

- Have you taken a major decision with respect to your career?! Do you want to retire?
-
Yes. In a proportion of 90 %, yes, I will retire.  

Mihai Covaliu will make soon 31. He could participate to at least an Olympiad. But he is weary of staying away from his family: his wife and the two children. Sword means cantonments and a lot of competitions abroad.  Covaliu’s plans for the future include opening a sword school. But now he wants something else. "I want to participate to the training of my colleagues.  I have to discuss with president of the federation, Ana Pascu", said Covaliu.

Ana Pascu, the president of FRS

Dearest , the way in which you keep on traslating into English is outrageous!You can not say ...at Beijing !!!!( at Mizil , perhaps) or ....from... instead of ...in Bucharest ! so on .One can easily recognize "Romanian -English " ......but I assume you've continued writting in English for the English to understand .....not for the Romanians to entertain themselves! Yesterday, you probably read all the criticism ,but you don't seem to care much!I suggest you reconsider or be laughed a
