“Our PATU is moving forward, we are in a stage of changes, of transparency and support to all our members, it is really pleasing the way in which we are coordinating to have successful events that will bring our athletes closer in the quest to qualify for the next Olympic Games in Paris 2024. The planning of the Pan Am Series continues to progress, with which I am sure that the United States, Costa Rica, and Brazil along with all the PATU staff, will provide the best tools for our athletes to achieve their goals and our Continental Union can be positioned worldwide,” said Juan Manuel Lopez, PATU president.

The Pan Am Series in its 2022 editions already unified image, to have from the visual aspect, a homogeneity that generates identity among the Pan American family. On the other hand, the Pan American Annual Registry (PAR) continues to advance to provide the necessary assets to all the NAMs for their growth, unification and strengthening together with PATU.
