HaBaWaBa non conosce confini: grazie all'intraprendenza di Luca Malinconico, presidente provinciale FIN Campania e grande propugnatore dell'attività locale targata FIN - HaBaWaBa, il quotidiano locale "La città di Salerno" ha dedicato al torneo regionale un'intera pagina, ricordando l'imminente appuntamento con l'International Festival haBaWaBa 2018. Vogliamo inviare un sentito rinraziamento al quotidiano La città di Salerno e a tutti i piccoli sportivi che stanno vivacizzando il torneo regionale, di cui trovate tutti i nomi qui sotto. P.S. Un piccolo appunto: HaBaWaBa non è un nome di fantasia, ma un acronimo, e sta per Happy Baby Water Ball. habawaba-salerno-1200
