If you are interested in attending the EUC but your country could not find enough players to form a national team, then read the message of Charlie Mead below. There is enough interest already for an open international team. Charlie will know more about the other divisions. EFDF is also accepting "B" national teams in cases where a country might have enough players to form a second team. And, certainly any country which hasn't registered a national team at all may still do so. All questions and sign up requests are to be sent to Charlie Mead directly (see contact information below). Please note that unlike to the usual timing of EUCs this year play will start on Monday (Aug. 25th) instead of Sunday. Information about the EUC can be found on the web at http://www.ira.uka.de/~thgries/disc/efdf/ Regards, Thomas Griesbaum thgries@ira.uka.de EFDF President P.S.: I apologize if you receive multiple copies of this. But the EUC is coming soon and we want to reach as many players as possible. ----------------------------------------------------------------- From: cmead@midnet.com (Charlie Mead) Subject: EUC97 Date: 10 Aug 1997 21:41:09 GMT Please pass this on to all players your club team. Hi, This is an offer from the Organising Committee of the EFDF European Ultimate Championships for any players from your country who wish to form an international team in Open, Womens and Junior divisions to attend Euro '97 and join with other players living in Europe to make up as many teams as is practical. The tournament will be held on August 24th-30th at Millfield School. Registration is August 24th and play begins on Monday August 25th. The finals are on Saturday August 30th. We recognise that this is a late invitation and are offering floor space at a very cheap rate.to anyone taking up the offer. Players will need to provide their own food or buy the food package which is L90 for the week, breakfast and dinner. There is also the player fee of L90 which covers all tournament costs and parties, medical facilities, players pack and transport for the whole week. The countries that are eligible to send players in the divisions where they do not already have a national team entered are are Austria, Belgium, Germany, France, Switzerland, Italy, Czech Republic, Denmark, Norway, Holland, Spain, Ireland, Portugal, Hungary, Latvia, Russiaand any non-european passport holders who have been resident in Europe for more than 1 year.
