The countdown has started for boccia champ Nadav Levi pictured with his father, Shuki Levi

Our heartiest congratulations go to Nadav Levi, Israel's boccia champion, who came seventh in the world Championships. As a result, he qualifies for the Paralympic Games to be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in September. Nadav told ESRAmagazine: we did the unbelievable! It's an outstanding result against all odds. Now when the dream has become a reality, we can make a new one. Everything is possible in sport. Nadav, of Ramat Hasharon, also thanked us for the great article about him and the sport – a variation of bowls for athletes with severe physical disabilities – which appeared in our last issue.
