European Championships 2007 in Wetzlar (Germany)

 The Executive Committee of IWBF Europe is proud to inform you that it decided on April 2nd, 2005 to award the European Championships for Men and Women in 2007 to Wetzlar, Germany.  Wetzlar is the home field of RSV Lahn-Dill, which won the European Champions Cup in 2004 in Madrid.  It is 80 km from Frankfurt.  

IWBF Europe had a very difficult choice to make.  There were two excellent bids, one from Birmingham and the other from Wetzlar.  Both bids were way above our regular standards and we are seriously expecting the best organisation, media coverage and spectators ever. 

We welcome very much the work that both the German and British federations have put into the bid and their excellent presentations in the Executive Committee.   

The European Championships will be held from 22 August to 4 September 2007.
