1st EUROPEAN UNIVERSITIES GAMES Cordoba, Spain: July 13-24, 2012
The First European Universities Games, to be held in 2012, were attributed in March 2010 at the EUSA Executive Committee Meeting in Vilnius. Three bidding cities – Lisbon (POR), Cordoba (ESP) and Lodz (POL) presented their candidatures to the members of the EUSA EC. The idea of hosting a multi-sport university event in 2012, bringing together European university teams from several sports at the same time was very appealing for all candidates, which all presented excellent bids.
The event was finally attributed to the Spanish City of Cordoba which will host the Games between July 13 and 24, 2012. European Universities Games will be the largest European multisport student event, featuring ten sports: basketball, handball, football, futsal, rugby 7s, volleyball, badminton, beach-volleyball, table tennis and tennis. http://www.eusagames2012.com
