A Malta contingent, comprising 90 people between athletes, officials and parents, left the island early this morning on their way to Salamanca, Spain, where the 55th edition of the FISEC (Federation Internationale Sportive del'Enseignement Catholique) Games will be held between today and Friday. Maltese athletes will be taking part in five disciplines - athletics, basketball, swimming, volleyball and Futsal (five-a-side football). Earlier this year the FISEC International Bureau announced that next year the Games, where emphasis is laid on a wide participation more than competition, will again be held in Malta. The 54th edition, in 2002, was staged here as well.
