RETIREMENT ADDRESS
BY OUTGOING CIRILH PRESIDENT
GEORGE PICKARD

I have been associated with the FIRS Inline Hockey Committee since 1994 when I petitioned the FIRS Congress in Portugal to install this sport as the newest of our four roller sports disciplines within this International Federation.

For the past 8 years I have served two terms as the CIRILH President. With your able assistance, we have together achieved remarkable progress for inline hockey development around the world.

During the period from 1995 through 2007, there have been 31 different national federations that participated with inline hockey teams at the FIRS World Championships or at Pan American Games. Among the FIRS member nations, there are now 43 countries which organize inline hockey national championships and/ or compete in FIRS Continental Championships.

At age 77 I have decided not to again stand for election as CIRILH President. It has been 8 years since I retired from a 40 year career as Executive Director of USA Roller Sports and took up this position as your CIRILH President.
