FISTC European Championship in sprint 2010

Donovaly 12 - 14 february 2010

A great European Sprint Championship

This Championship was originally planned for Taxenbach (A), but with a very short notice it was moved to Donovaly (Slovakia) because the municipality of Taxenbach could not carry out this event.
Luckily our friends of the Donly Club were able to organize a superb European Championship in stead.
The weather conditions were cloudy and windy for all tree days of the race, but thanks low temperatures the trail was in good condition and perfectly worked out.
The fair play of our musher was excellent: We had no official protests.

We do thank again our Slovak friends, and particularly thanks to the Race Marshall Pavel Toma who during the price giving Ceremony announced, that this has been his last Championship.
Now we wait for the 2011 World Championship in Donovaly, which is also the twentieth Anniversary since their very first sled dog race, and we are certain, that this will be a great event.

Your Board says thank you to all participants, and we hope to have many musher coming next Year.

FISTC General Assembly 2009.

All FISTC delegates met in Taxenbach (Austria) for our 24th General Assembly the 6th to 7th of June 2009.
You can read Report from president of FISTC Franco Mannato and The minute of the meeting..

 

REPORT FROM THE PRESIDENT

Ladies and Gentlemen, dear Delegates,

I am happy to welcome you here in Taxenbach for this General Assembly and I take this opportunity to thank our Austrian friends for the organisation of this event. While we are here we will learn more about this place and the excellent race they organise as I have been told by FISTC Board members who participated here this winter.
Let's start working. This year my report will be mixed as we had some positive aspects and some negative ones.
We started the season with an excellent second European Championship Kart in Bueriis, Italy. As we expected from our Italian friends from FIMSS, the race was well organised and the trails were very good and quite flat. Indeed we had a successful organisation and all the controls were done and the results as expected. We mainly missed participation from some countries. The Netherlands did not show up, is that a lack of interest? All doping controls were negative and that also is very important. Equipment and rulesare still under review and final decisions will only be taken in 2012. Some rules need improvement and that is coming......read all report

PLEASE NOTE

From the 1th july 2009 the musher FISTC are allowed to partecipate to the next WSA Championship.
The sanction for the partecipation in past years will remain.
Is introduced a Ski-joring class with 2 dogs, both sprint and MD. Like in all other classes the dog should be attached to eachother with a neck line, or when running in one line, the second (wheel) dog should be attached to the central line by a tawline and a neckline.
The dog pass may disappear, the last pages of the dog passport can be used, mushers should be reminded that it is obligatory to have a photo of the dog in a passport. The stamp of the club should be partly on the picture
