Jose Nazareno (Argentina) has been promoted to Level 3 at Grand Prix Santiago. Damian Hiller wrote a few words for him:

For years Jose was a judge who didn’t get the credit he deserved for the work he did. Owner of the largest shop in Cordoba city (2nd largest in the country), the very scarce opportunities to meet made it difficult to interact and properly assess his value and where he stood on the program. Argentina’s community due to the concentration of players in Buenos Aires has always been very centralized and though leadership always sought the development of other regions, taking a hands on approach was rather hard.

But not for Jose.

Jose started a “crusade” of his own, certifying people on many provinces and setting the foundation stone of many of the communities which are now spread around the country.

Add to this the fact that, with the return of a regular GP circuit to Latin America, Jose showed great skills in his event operations, his commitment to the program and the game and a much deeper relationship to the community as a whole and it’s no surprise that today, we’re able to welcome Jose to the ranks of L3.

A step forward for the community as a whole, a huge step for Latin America incorporating a new L3.

Congrats Jose![/cets_callout_box]
