Dear Friends,
it’s a great pleasure tu announce that finally the European Draughts Confederation is officially recognized and with a tax code.
From 16th November, 2021, after official recognition by the Italian agency, we can finally say that EDC really exists as a body.

In the opening speech, the EDC President thanked the participants and summarized about the EDC officially
recognition and the tax code obtained by the Italian Agency on 16th November, which finally made EDC as an
official body. The EDC has been capable to organize many championships, in safe, thanks to the work of
everybody. The Championships of Teams, Blitz and Rapid, Youth Under 27, Veterans, male and female, were
organized and for Youth under 18 also this year there have been held the online cups. Without forget the General
Assembly and nine Executive Board Meeting. So there are reasons to be happy about the amazing work done,
despite Covid. Anyway the new rising wave of covid spread in Europe makes new difficulties to plan events and
location.
Then point 2. European Championships 2022 were examined.
First point faced the 2.1 European Championships Open and Women, Rapid, Blitz.
About Blitz and Rapids Rik Keurentjes informed there could be interest in organizing them by Hijken DTC, in
October, maybe close to the Damweek Hijken. Tamara Tansikkuzhina asked to consider to alter the EC Blitz and
Rapids by adding a team classification to the final standings, resulting in a knock-out system between the national
teams based on the standing. This would make the importance of team results in these championships higher.
But since it would mean a longer tournament, the idea could probably only be considered at first for blitz.
For what concerns the EC Open and Women, the members of the Board will verify possible available organizers.
About 2.2 European Championship Youth, it will be held, as usual, from 1st to 8th August, 2022, in a place not yet
determined. Considering that none reactions has reached the Board, after the call for the proposals, obviously
also because of covid, the Board will consider to split the 8 groups in two parts: Hopes and Minicadets, boys and
girls, and Cadets and Juniors, boys and girls. The Board also acknowledged that the first player for free is too much
for the organizer and agreed that the third one free of each group per each federations, as in the recent WC Youth,
can be a good way towards the organizers. Contact with organizers will follow directly by President or DT of Youth
and other members of the Board to verify possible venue. Unfortunately, in many Countries, the good period of
August, without school, gets a high season price.
The Board confirmed the idea to hold a problemist solution championships for children, about 2 hours, during the
EC Youth, with medals and diplomas.
About 2.3 European Championships Under 27, the Board agreed to get them apart from the ECs Youth, and they
could be held in Italy, e.g. in Bergamo.
About 2.4 European Championship Veterans, scheduled in October or November, there could be the possibility
to hold it in Italy, as well, together with the ECs Under27 if possible.
Then point 3. Annual Fee of EDC Federation was discussed. The Minutes of EDC General assembly were sent to
the FMJD but without any reaction about the request of forwarding a part of the FMJD annual fees to the
Continental confederation. The President EDC will write officially to the President FMJD to ask a reply about that.
But in the meanwhile the Board defined an EDC Annual fee of 50,00 € per federation per year.
Then the point 4. Renewed Athletes and Trainers Commission was discussed and the Board, taking the input of
GA agreed to renew the Athletes and Trainers Commission, confirmed Rik Keurentjes as trainer member with
Guntis Valneris (LAT) and Tamara Tansikkuzhina (RUS) as player representatives.
Nothing to discuss about the point 5. Other various and possible evaluations.
At the 19.15, since there was nothing else to discuss, the President thanked the participants for their time, and
after sending all the best wishes for the holidays and the new year, closed the EB Meeting.
