Since then, he has produced over 1,800 Greek National Champions, while at the international level (World and European Championships), he has accumulated 250+ medals.
Beyond his numerous distinctions as a coach, Konstantinos Athanasopoulos has consistently developed accomplished trainers, many of whom now operate their own schools.
