Titus Kafunda Mukhala (athletics, 100m and 200m), Esther Sandu (judo) and Ben Muzito (boxing) say the new Olympic Youth Development Centre in Lusaka, Zambia, which the Olympic Movement and Zambian government opened in 2010, has helped them improve their abilities and raise their aspirations. The three athletes received an additional boost of inspiration when IOC President Jacques Rogge and United Nations Secretary-General  Ban Ki-moon paid a visit to the centre.
