EUROPEAN VETERANS Table Tennis Championships - RELEASE

It is our pleasure to introduce to you 2011 European Veterans Table Tennis Championships which will be held in Liberec, Czech Republic from June 20-25, 2011. All information about the championships can be listed under the link

www.evc2011.com

European Veteran Championships are open tournaments and therefore it is our pleasure to cordially invite all of you who are born in 1971 at the latest.
We would also be very grateful to you if you forward this information to anyone else in your country who might be interested in veterans table tennis. Thank you very much for that, indeed!

At the championships website we have prepared extensive information for your pleasure to assure you we are ready to organise very successful event to your full satisfaction.

Simply, we want to give back the reputation to the Euro Veterans Championships and our aim is to exceed participants' expectations.

How can we reach it? We want to and we have strong will and ambition to do so.

Championships will be played at least on 114 tables in 4 halls. All halls are ventilated or air-conditioned, floor will be not slippery, mostly taraflex. There will be always at least 20 more practise tables for you and despite the official practise schedule on Saturday and Sunday before the Championships, Referee assures to plan competitions in that way that another practise will be available at official tables during competition days as well.

All halls are easily accesible on foot, it does not take more than 5 minutes walk between the most distant halls.

In case that more than 2,700 players will apply, we are ready to rent another ventilated hall with the capacity of 16 tables very close to the main arena, too.

ETTU Competition Manager Mr. Roman Plese and Referee Mr. Petr Bohumsky will schedule competitions so that categories will be played in respective hall all the time. No hectic transfers between your matches.

We want to bring table tennis celebrities to your championships. Ex-world and ex-European champion Mikael Appelgreen is confirmed to come by DONIC, some other very famous players are under negotiation (updates can be found at the news section of the official website).

We have introduced online List of Participants so you are able to check who is already registered.

Any player can make comfortable direct online registration with immediate payment and immediate registration confirmation. This system offers you similar comfort as an online reservation of an air ticket. We have tested our online registration on scale of veteran players to their full satisfaction and so we believe you also find it easy to use.

I would like to mention one important issue. We guarantee that accommodation (hotels, pensions, student hostels) offered by the organizer is not overcharged. Our scheduled rates do not exceed rates offered by hotels themselves. No high season just because of this event! Perhaps you usually do not accept organizer’s offer. In such a case, please, be cautious when making your lodging by your own and compare your offer with the official rates published on the official EVC 2011 website.

We are proud to present extended accommodation offer with online booking possibility. Although Liberec is not a big city we have arranged wide range of accommodation possibilities for all of you.

Best-selling hit - that is special discounted EVC PARTICIPANT PACKAGE offer consisting of entry fee, 4* hotel accommodation and players’ party under very advantageous conditions. You can save up to 80 EUR with the purchase of this package.

We plan to organize Players' Party for 5 Euro admission covering room rental with music of 60’s. The aim is to offer opportunity to all of us to talk about various issues, to exchange experience in our play or just to have a nice time with friends. No obligation to pay for anything else, no expensive buffet. First beer for free, everything else according to your taste and preferences.

We provide shuttle buses between official hotels and halls and your participant badge allows you also to use Liberec city transportation for free.

All mentioned arrangements should increase your comfort and redound to championships credit.

Obviously, any changes for better cost money. Therefore we have been forced to adjust tournament conditions (entry fee) accordingly. Maybe you are pleasantly surprised we have increased the entry fee only of 10 Euro from Eur 110 in Porec 2009 to Eur 120 in Liberec 2011.

Although we introduce better infrastructure and reasonable services, we keep the deadline for early registrations till December 31, 2010. Furthermore, contrary of the past championships, we allow late applications even till the end of May 2011!

Individual registration forms are available online. It is very simple online registration and payment for everyone who prefers to apply by his/her own.

If you have any special request (as more-bedded room, room for disabled people, hotel suite, transfer from Prague, etc.) please contact the Registration office. Hana and Katerina are there to help and assist you. Although they prefer communication in English as the official ETTU language, they can communicate also in French and Russian and German is comprehensible, too.
EVC Registration Office provides Group Registration Forms in major languages.

We are happy to organize the championships for you and look forward seeing you in Liberec next June!

Yours,
