New members in IWBF Europe Executive Committee 

 

As Fernando Zappille, the IWBF Europe Treasurer resigned as of the beginning of October on his own request, the Executive Committee had the difficult task to find a successor.

The Committee is pleased to inform you that we have found in Antonella Frabetti from Italy, a person who is willing to become our Treasurer. Antonella will be our first woman in the IWBF Europe history to serve on the Executive. 

The Executive would like to thank Fernando Zappile for the work  he has done during the past years for our Executive Committee, and we are looking forward to meeting Fernando again during the EuroCup rounds and or Championships, as he continues as an IWBF Europe Commissioner.

 Further the Executive Committee appointed two new Members-at-Large at our last meeting, held 30-31 October in Rome, Italy.

These are two well known persons in the wheelchair basketball scene, namely Mr Ulf Mehrens from Germany and Walter Pfaller from Austria.

 At the coming IWBF Europe Congress to be held during the European Championships for Men in Paris, France the NOWBs have to ratify the new Executive members.
