Iulian
Ciobanu

Iulian Ciobanu burst on to the boccia scene in 2015, making the national team just one year after taking up the sport. Iulian has played a key role in BC4 Pairs play in recent years, competing alongside teammate Alison Levine. His calm exterior and poise on court have made him a strong member of the team. Iulian attended the 2020 Tokyo Paralympic Games where he competed in individual and pairs play. He just recently went undefeated at the Montréal World Boccia Cup in both the individual and pairs event!
