The Hungarian Kickboxing Federation elected once again dr. Richard Leyrer as their president during the Extraordinary General Assembly held on Saturday, 22.06.2013. The sport leader starts his 9th four-year-long presidency.

"The Hungarian kickboxing has proven several times during the last years. We are successful in the international competitions, World and European Championships" – said dr. Richard Leyrer on Saturday, who is also a vice-president of the Hungarian Olympic Committee. "Six Hungarian kickboxers qualified for the next World Combat Games in autumn, which is a big act in itself. Our aim is to reach the best results possible during the Games in St. Petersburg. We still believe that sport can help a lot for the socially disadvantaged and we are working hard on widening our program even more, in which we have already gained success.”
