Message from the Competition Commission Chair

Ladies and gentlemen, friends in sport,

I am very happy and excited to

welcome you to the 3rd edition of

the European Universities Games

here in the cities of Zagreb and

Rijeka, Croatia. This edition is the

biggest in the history of EUSA, with

more than 5.700 participants taking

part in 21 sports, with the introduc-

tion of two of them (Swimming and

Table Tennis) for student athletes

with disabilities. This is an important

step forward in our sport program!

EUSA and the Organising Com-

mittee have prepared the venues

and sporting environment to the

highest standards to allow you

to excel in each and every one

of your sporting competitions.

Almost 900 university teams from

41 countries will be competing for

gold. Although only a few will receive

the medal, all the teams can be win-

ners – winners of through fair play,

earning respect of their opponents, of

play and of the oicials and spectators

present at the venues. EUSA strongly

supports the Fair Play ideology, along-

side competing free from doping!

It is my sincere wish that we reach

the end of the European Universi-

ties Games with 900 winning teams,

all winners through Fair Play.

Good luck!

Message from the OC Technical Delegate – Badminton

Dear students and athletes,

First of all, I would like to welcome

you and to wish you a nice stay in

Zagreb. The Games will welcome

more than 5.700 participants

composing almost 900 teams,

representing more than 400

European universities. In badminton

there will be participating 22

teams. According to these facts

these Games are the largest in

terms of the number of sports

disciplines and competitors.

Zagreb is the capital and the

largest city of the Republic of

Croatia. Zagreb is the most

important transport hub in

Croatia where Central Europe,

the Mediterranean and Southeast

Europe meet, making the Zagreb

area the centre of the road, rail and

air networks of Croatia. It is a city

known for its diverse economy,

high quality of living, museums,

sporting and entertainment events.

The students will enjoy a full

Fair play

Fair play is deeply embedded in the

values of EUSA. The objective of

promotion and encouragement of

Fair Play is set already in the statutes

of EUSA, as part of the core objecti-

ves of the organisation. Partnership

with the European Fair Play Move-

ment in 2013 proves this even more.

Since 2007, EUSA announces the best

gesture of fair play in its sports event

for the current year and awards the

winners the special fair play reco-

gnition, Enno Harms Fair Play Award,

named after the irst EUSA President,

very much devoted to fair play.

During each of the EUSA sporting

event, the organisers, EUSA repre-

sentatives and technical delegates

pay special attention to the fair play

gestures and attitude. At every sports

event a part of the protocol is the

oath of the athletes and oicials,

which includes respecting fair-play.

In some team sports, the athletes

demonstrating fair play during the

matches, following the rules and

pursuing a “clean” game are awarded

with a fair play recognition already

during the event. The prestigious

annual EUSA Enno Harms Fair Play

Award, though, is awarded to the

best example of fair play, for the

individual’s or team’s mentality and

actions which stand out the most.

EUSA Executive Committee mem-

bers on its last meeting in a year

discuss the proposals received from

all sporting events governed by EUSA

in that year and select the team or

individual to receive the annual fair

play award which is formally han-

ded to them at a special occasion

– usually at an EUSA Gala event.

program of social activities that

will help them to get to know each

other on a personal level and form

friendships. The Games will prove

once again the power of Sport

in bringing together people from

diferent nationalities and religions

enable them all to spend quality

time breaking down barriers. I

would like to encourage students

and boost their competitive and

team spirit. Also I want to thank

students and professors, after

they return home, on promotion

of Croatia and Zagreb and convey

their impressions outside Croatia.

Also I would like to use

this opportunity to express

our appreciation and pride of

working all together. Thanks to

mutual cooperation of member

associations, universities, event

organizers, athletes, volunteers,

partner organizations and all

EUSA friends, the European

university sport is thriving.

Once again I wish all the students

and professors all the best, a lot

of sports successes and fair play.


Anti-Doping Policy

Doping is not a guarantee of success

in sport. In fact, its efect is usually the

opposite. A lot of elite sportsmen and

sportswomen who did doping got

caught. As a result, they lost pride and

were banned for at least 2 years from

participating in a sport they loved and

lived for. An even bigger problem of

doping are the efects on the body.

In elite sports, doping is deined

as a violation of one or more

anti-doping rules:

1 Presence of a prohibited

substance in an athlete’s sample

2 Use or attempted use of a

prohibited substance or method

3 Refusing to submit sample

collection after being notiied

4 Failure to ile athlete whereabouts

information & missed tests

5 Tampering with any part of

the doping control process

6 Possession of a prohibited

substance or method

7 Traicking a prohibited

substance or method

8 Administering or attempting to

administer a prohibited substance

or method to an athlete

You can ind the list of prohibited

substances and methods on the in-

ternet. It’s updated every year by the

World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)

and it’s valid for every sport. You

should check every substance you are

taking. Athletes need to completely

avoid steroids, erythropoietin (EPO),

stimulants, human growth hormo-

ne (HGH), marijuana and narcotics,

and pay special attention also to

dietary or nutritional supplements.

EUSA is active in Anti-Doping

promotion, and has been a partner in

the European Anti-Doping Initiative

(EADI), project aimed at establishing

an European-wide Anti-Doping men-

tality in the youth sector by establis-

hing a moral tenor towards concepts

such as Fair-play, sensitizing and

raising awareness on all levels of the

complex social environment surro-

unding the doping problematic and

implementing strategies to motivate

young people to pass on the message

and create a strong multiplying efect.

Also the International University

Sport Federation (FISU) has been

actively promoting sports without

drugs, also on university sport level.

EUSA is currently not enforcing do-

ping tests at our events. In accordan-

ce with the national legislation of the

host countries, however, doping con-

trols may be implemented by the Na-

tional Anti-Doping Agencies. If such

doping tests are executed, the WADA

rules and regulations are applicable to

all athletes. Please remember that te-

sting can be conducted in-competiti-

on and out-of-competition. If you are

identiied in a Registered Testing Pool

(RTP), you must provide current and

accurate whereabouts information.

What can you do to be an excellent

sportsman or sportswoman?

• Practise right and live healthy

• Get more information about

consequences of Doping

• Play fair and be a good role

model to younger athletes

• BE COMMITED TO SPORT

WITHOUT DOPING

Doping? No, thanks!


About Badminton in Croatia

Since the 50s Badminton in Croatia

started several times, but until the

early 90s, it remained on level of fa-

mily entertainment and leisure. As the

irst clubs in Zagreb, Osijek and Rijeka

were founded, Croatian Badminton

Association and Zagreb Badminton

Association were established. Within

these Associations regulated com-

petitive badminton was developing,

and now it is included in all major Eu-

ropean and World competitions. Also

Croatian Badminton Association was

one of the founders of the Croatian

Olympic Committee in 1991.

After the initiators of badminton

in Croatia ensured conditions for

engagement of foreign coaches

- from Ukraine, Denmark, China,

Indonesia - the irst young players

achieved success in the European

Junior Cup (European Junior Circuit),

and then among seniors. The greatest

successes are the title winners at

Mediterranean Games in 2013: men

double Zvonimir Durkinjak / Zvonimir

Hoelbling and title winners of Europe-

an champion in 2014: competition

younger juniors Maja Pavlinic and

Katarina Galenic. An important outco-

me are two quarter inals for Croatian

representatives at the irst European

Games in 2015 at Baku - Durkinjak

achieved this ranking in men single

competition and Durkinjak/Hoelbling

in men double competition.

Croatian Badminton Association

now has 25 members and several

hundred registered players. As a

competitive sport in Croatia, bad-

minton is very popular and organized

as recreation, as oicial school sport,

and as organized competitions for

students. The main goal for already

several generations of players is to

achieve the irst Croatian appearance

at the Olympic Games.
