Eurodiscers It's 100% official! The World Flying Disc Federation poll closed on Sunday and Beach Ultimate is now officially recognized as a Disc Sport. There were 62 votes in favor, 0 against, and 0 abstained! But that is not the only big news: the WFDF and BULA will jointly host the World Championships of Beach Ultimate in Italy 22-28 August 2011. This will be 5-on-5 Beach Ultimate for national teams and countries can compete in 6 divisions:
1. Open
2. Women
3. Mixed
4. Masters ('78 or earlier)
5. Mixed Masters ('78 or earlier)
6. Grandmasters ('71 or earlier)
The location is perfect! It is at a sports complex that has its own beach
and can house 2,500 players. Prices are low (40 euros per person per night
for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a room with 3 others). All the basic
information is at http://www.wcbu2011.com/
Juniors ('92 or later) will have their own World Championships at the same
place, a week before: 17-20 August and will compete in:
1. Open
2. Girls
3. Mixed
I have sent this information to your national federations as well and I hope
you can help spread the news and get teams to come. With the location as it
is, the prices, and the perfect dates, it will truly be amazing
championships :-)
If you have any questions, let me know.
See you on the beach!
