CONVENTIONS


The first EUSA Convention of 2016 was held in Bled, Slovenia in


September, welcoming the Technical Commission and Delegates, along


with the organising committees of the 2017 European Universities


Championships for seminars, presentations, and social activities.


A historical overview of EUSA statistics
and a detailed report into the European
Universities Games in Zagreb and Rijeka
was given, as well as a presentation of
EUSA’s involvement in the European
Week of Sport together with the European
Universities Championships Regulations
and Guidelines.


The second day continued with fruitful
meetings about medical service require-
ments, the new website management


system and explanations of the EUSA
registration and accreditation system.

The Portuguese city of Coimbra hosted
the year’s second Convention in prepara-
tion for the 4th edition of the European
Universities Games. Technical Delegates
took an in-depth field visit, inspecting the
venues together with the sport repre-
sentatives of the local and national sports
federations for the sports concerned.

The EUSA Supervision Commission and
the Organising Committee in addition
focused on many organisation areas of the
2018 Games including structure, budget,
master plan, risk assessment, accom-
modation, catering, transport, volunteers,
medical services and other key aspects for
running a large multisport event.
