The Executive Committee held four meet-
ings in 2005, in Cordoba, Rome, Darm-
stadt and Wroclaw. In its first meeting the
board nominated eight new students into
the EUSA Student Commission. The main
success of the Student Commission was
the ignition of the volunteer programme,
which became one of the main tasks of
the succeeding commissions.
The 8th EUSA General Assembly was
held in Valencia, Spain in 2006. Chaired
by Mr Roch Campana from Belgium, the
Assembly approved the modification of
the Statutes and accordingly changed
the mandate of the Executive Committee
from two to four years.
At the first meeting of the new Executive
Committee that took place in Eindhoven,
the Netherlands in 2006, it was decided to
change the title of the European Univer-
sity Championships to European Universi-
ties Championships to stress the universi-
ties as participants on the events.The next editions of the Executive Commit-
tee Meetings were organised in Moscow,
Paris, and Valencia. Following the Activity
Plan, the new board started to establish
ties with European political and academic
organisations, National University Sports
Associations and their related Universities.The following year’s 2007 EUSA Annual
General Assembly was held in Belgrade,
Serbia. After approving the reports, the
Assembly, chaired by Mr Adam Roczek
from Poland, elected the new Executive
Committee for the next four years, with
Mr Alberto Gualtieri re-elected as the
EUSA President.During the General Assembly, the EUSA
Awards were presented for the first time.The EUSA Executive Committee met four
times in 2007, in Brussels, Magglingen,
Lefkosia and Belgrade while an extraor-
dinary meeting was held during the FISU
Summer Universiade in Bangkok.In 2008, the 10th EUSA General Assembly
took place in Paris, France. The Assembly
was chaired by Mr Stefan Bergh from
Sweden. The delegates approved the Ex-
ecutive Committee and Student Commis-
sion’s final reports, approved the budgets
and the activity plan for 2009 and agreed
on the modification to the Statutes.The Executive Committee convened on
four occasions in Istanbul, London, Bel-
grade and Paris. For the first time, EUSA
also received revenue from sponsorship,
which allowed the Executive Committee
to decide on the employment of more
EUSA staff.The Committee also approved the EUC
Regulations for 2008 and established the
EUSA Medical Commission, the Rules and
Regulations Commission and the Market-
ing Commission.The social and economic diversity among
the member countries resulted in the
need to establish a “Development Plan”
to provide technological and economic
support towards those National University
Sports Associations which were not yet
capable to carry on a full constant activity.
