Due to the pandemic, we couldn't hold our traditional ETO Christmas this year. It was very important for our club that despite the epidemic situation no young athlete was left without a gift, so we asked our youth coaches to distribute a gift from Győri Audi ETO KC to their own team. It's nice to see the joy and happiness on the children's faces in the pictures taken at the time of the gift-giving.
