EUSA NEWS EUSA PRESENTED ITS ACTIVITIES AT THE FISU FORUM
The International University Sports Federation organised the 8th FISU FORUM in Abu Dhabi, UAE from March 25-30, 2006. As the FORUM was the perfect place for exchanging and understanding the different structure of University Sports around the world, it was also the occasion for the Regional and Continental University Sports Federations to present their activities to more than 180 participants from 65 countries. The structure and activities of the European Universities Sports Association (EUSA) were presented to the participants by its President Mr. Alberto Gualtieri and Secretary General Matjaž Pečovnik. The representatives of EUSA also took the occasion to have several meetings with the representatives of FISU and its member federations. The next FISU forum will take place in Krakow in 2008, while the next EUSA Symposium will take place in Moscow in 2007.
The candidate will raise their competencies and skills in organising sport event in the European level, get new experiences in different fields, learn about the culture of the country, get new friends all over the Europe and much more. The training course includes for example working as team attachés of the participating delegations or being a member of the organising committee, supporting the organizers in the competition fields (global coordination, manning information desks, communication between organization committee and referees, guests, etc.) The host of each EUC will cover the accommodation costs, food and transportation on the spot. The travelling costs to the EUC have to be paid by the student or his/her institution (except the volunteers who go to Eindhoven, where the OC will cover those costs). National university sport organisations are expected to send all the fulfilled applications to EUSA STC (siki@easl. ee). After the nomination, students will get official invitation to participate in the training course.
