EUCS2021: No EUCRs - Next Plan XEUCF in Bruges on Sept. 30th - Oct. 3rd 2021
Dear Ultimate community
End of last year several task forces were created to help the EUF. One of them is working on how to make international Ultimate happen in 2021. The decision timeline for a possible EUCS was presented at the general assembly and looks as follows:
|
Scenario
|
Event Details
|
Decision Deadline
|
Requirement by deadline
|
|
A
|
EUCRs Jul/Aug and EUCF Sep/Oct
|
March 1st
|
International travel is allowed and restrictions are lifted by July
|
|
B1
|
XEUCF Bruges (<1000 people)
Sept. 30th to Oct. 3rd 2021
|
May 1st
|
International travel is allowed and restrictions are lifted by September
|
|
B2
|
EUCF Sep/Oct split into three separate divisions (<200 attendants each?)
|
May 1st
|
International travel is allowed, however some restrictions are still expected
|
|
C
|
No EUF organized events, federations are encouraged to work within their limits
|
June 1st
|
Small events are possible between neighbours in September
|
With the 1st decision at hand we want to follow through with this protocol. A regular season with all EUCRs and EUCF happening is currently highly unlikely and therefore the scenario A is canceled for 2021.
For the next Deadline we will be talking about having the XEUCF of 3-4 days in Bruges from Sept. 30th to Oct. 3rd 2021 or another format if possible. National federations will nominate the teams (hopefully with a qualification process from 2021).
Thanks to the national federations for participating in the last survey. The information about their tournament plans strengthened our belief that it is better to leave more room for the federations to get back to ultimate in their own terms.
