Media Visibility: |
The first goal for a tournament organization must be that the customers (=the players) get what they came for: good regular fields, smooth organization of the competition. |
Gifts/Trophies: |
Medals will be provided and paid by EUF. Spirit of the Game and Winner Trophies must be covered by the tournament budget or by sponsors. |

Tournament costs to the individual player including travel costs will be a central criterion for bid selection. We want to enable all interested teams to attend and not to exclude anyone for cost reasons. |

We warmly suggest potential bidders to check the best practices described in the WFDF Bid Guideline and WFDF Tournament Director's Manual.
