2012 IOM Euro in Malaga
Saturday, July 30th, 2011IOMICA Events SC has accepted ESP and Malaga proposal for IOM 2012 European Championship (October 30th to November 4th)
We will test at this continental championship a shorter event (2 days measurement + 4 days racing) with 4 heats so 62 competitors.
Events SC will propose next AGM to vote for modified Class Championship Rules for a 4 heats continental championship in order to get adapted (~proportional) allocation of places.
We await a confirmation from Marblehead Worlds organisers (initially planned October 14th/21st) to start their event 1 week earlier so hopefully they won’t interfere too much.
We have also received a very good quality proposal from ISR, but we have considered location too far from most competitors for an European Championships. They have so been offered to bid for next World Championship in 2013.
Deadline for submission of proposals for 2013 Worlds is January 1st 2012.
