International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach has encouraged athletes from around the world to get ready for the postponed Tokyo Olympic Games. In a video filmed at the Olympic Village during his visit to Japan last week and released on the IOC website, Bach said, “You will never ever forget these moments in the Olympic Village in all your life. And with the conditions our Japanese friends are offering here, the experience will be even more fantastic.” “This is the place to be nine months from now. I am very happy to be able to greet you here from the Olympic Village in Tokyo,” Bach added.
