PARAVOLLEY EUROPE


In line with its objective of inclusion for all participants, EUSA took


a momentous step in this endeavour by signing a Memorandum


of Understanding with ParaVolley Europe on January 28, 2020.


The signing of the significant
document took place at the
EUSA Offices in Ljubljana,
Slovenia in the presence of
ParaVolley Europe President
Mr Branko Mihorko and EUSA
President Mr Adam Roczek.


In the past, EUSA has included
sporting competitions for
students with disabilities at
the previous two editions of
the European Universities
Games, and will include Sitting
Volleyball as well as Para Table
Tennis on the sports schedule
for the fifth edition of the
European Universities Games in
Belgrade, Serbia.


Following the signing of this
Memorandum of Understanding
with ParaVolley Europe, EUSA
will look to include more events


and competitions for athletes
with disabilities, with particular
focus on ParaVolley.

Some of the main objectives
of the Memorandum of
Understanding between
EUSA and ParaVolley include
strengthening general
cooperation and partnership
between the two organisations;
working together in activities
and projects promoting
university sport in Europe,
promoting and contributing
to the development of
competitions in all ParaVolley
disciplines among students and
searching for wider synergies
and new opportunities arising
from the cooperation.

In addition, ParaVolley will
be given the possibility to

include young referees at
EUSA competitions and offer
education seminars and
technical support during EUSA
sport competitions while
exchanging relevant ParaVolley
information and encouraging
members to establish
cooperation at national level.

This Memorandum of
Understanding depicts EUSA’s
progress and continued
interest in partnerships and
collaborations in the sporting
sphere following the signing of a
Memorandum of Understanding
with the European Volleyball
Confederation in October 2017.
