Postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the 6th IOC World Conference on Prevention of Injury & Illness in Sport will be held in Monaco from 25th to 27th November with the support of the COM (Monegasque Olympic Committee). Close to 1,100 participants (from over 80 countries) are expected at the Grimaldi Forum. Experts, top scientists and practitioners from the world of medicine and sports will be sharing their latest discoveries by means of plenary conferences, symposiums, workshops and discussions. The aim is to put academic knowledge into practice in order to maximise participation in safe sport.
A show of effort, solidarity and generosity for a noble charitable cause
During the presentation of the Monegasque athletes taking part in the 24th Winter Olympic Games in Beijing, which was held on Tuesday 19th January at the Monaco Yacht Club, the Monegasque Olympic Committee was eager to present a charitable cause it has been supporting. It was initiated by Pascal Camia. An Olympian and former member of the bobsleigh team, he is now a marathon runner. He completed the 6 World Marathon Majors and was awarded the Six Star Medal which he decided to give to H.S.H. Prince Albert II as a gift.

03/04/2021 : The Monegasque rower will attempt to secure his ticket for the Tokyo Olympics (single scull) at the European Olympic qualification regatta (5-7 April).
“I feel in quite good shape. I feel as though I have gained momentum since the French national tests where I got into the finals. That’s rather a good sign.” Quentin Antognelli (26) admits: without being overly optimistic, the Monegasque rower is calm: “Technically, I feel more at ease. That bodes quite well.”
