El Salvador President Nayib Bukele and ISA President Fernando Aguerre Open World Surfing Games

El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele and ISA President Fernando Aguerre today inaugurated the Opening Ceremony of the 2021 Surf City El Salvador ISA World Surfing Games to welcome the 51 international delegations to the event.

Bukele and Aguerre spoke at the event’s Opening Ceremony, marking the official start to Surfing’s final Olympic qualifier for the sport’s debut in Tokyo 2020.

The Opening Ceremony was conducted under the guidance of the health and safety protocol established by the El Salvador government, the Local Organizing Committee, and the ISA. Each team was permitted to select only two athletes to attend to allow for safe social distancing measures.

There was no traditional parade of nations, but each pair of athletes participated in the ISA’s signature Sands of the World Ceremony. While one athlete carried their country flag, the other poured sand into a container where each nation’s sand accumulated, symbolizing the peaceful gathering of the participating nations through surfing.
