It is our hope to encourage as many of our traditional players to take part in this event.
It is an event, which for many years our members have requested we run. In 2011 we
held the first trial event in Tallinn, which was very successful and followed it by the
second edition in Bucharest in 2013. The 2013 event had doubled the number of
participants. In 2015 we shall hold the third edition in Stara Zagora, Bulgaria. It will be a
special time as the EWUF shall celebrate its 30th anniversary and we expect to have a
great opening ceremony and celebration. It will be great to see as many of our
members present to commemorate this special occasion.
EVENTS will include:!
