WELCOME MESSAGE EUROPEAN ATHLETICS PRESIDENT
I am very happy that Belgrade will host the 2013 SPAR European Cross Country Championships. The Athletics Federation of Serbia has presented an excellent proposal to European Athletics for a great city centre course and we are looking
thforward to a memorable 20 edition of the championships.
It will be the first time Serbia will have hosted the SPAR European Cross Country thChampionships the 15 nation to stage the event since it was inaugurated in 1994 –
and I am confident that the local organising committee are doing their utmost to ensure a successful event takes place in December 2013.
Athletics is a popular sport in Serbia with the country boasting some excellent athletes who have enjoyed many recent successes on the international stage and we hope this translates to a well-received event among fans of our sport.
The discipline of cross country is growing to be an ever more important part of athletics during the winter months. Cross country brings together athletes from the middle distances up to the marathon in the same race and provides a special challenge as the running surface can change according to the weather conditions.
The SPAR European Cross Country Championships are always an exciting and interesting competition, with the added dimension of also being a team event. The combination of the fantastic city of Belgrade surrounding the course will provide a memorable experience for athletes, officials and fans alike.
I would like to thank in advance the Athletics Federation of Serbia, the Belgrade 2013 local organising committee and city of Belgrade for their hard work now and in the future with regards to the organisation of the championships. We know the federations are becoming experienced organisers of European Athletics events.
I would also like to thank the media, officials, athletes and our stakeholders for all their support.
I hope that Belgrade 2013 continues the success story of the SPAR European Cross Country Championships and I look forward to meeting Europe’s cross country family in December 2013 in Serbia.

In my role as President of the Athletic Federation of Serbia, I have a great honour and thprivilege to welcome all of you to Belgrade for the 20 SPAR European Cross Country

This highly regarded competition is one of the most prominent events in our sport and you can take my word as a guarantee that Belgrade is ready to be the best host anyone can hope for. This Championships is the most significant athletics competition that Belgrade has organised since 1969, so you can be sure we are taking this opportunity extremely seriously and working very hard to complete all the preparations in time.
Our recent track record regarding organisation of international athletic events is quite impressive. In 2009, Serbia hosted the European Athletics Junior Championship,
ndfollowed by the European Athletics Team Championships 2 League and the European Athletics Convention in 2010 and European Athletics Team Championships in 2011. We see the upcoming SPAR European Cross Country Championships as the crown of our efforts to revive athletics in our country and put Serbia on the map of European sports, where it rightfully belongs. Based on the previous experiences, we firmly believe that our organisational capacities are sufficient to handle this responsibility in appropriate manner and all of you will be in position to evaluate our hospitality, level of technical aptitude and dedication to precision and punctuality.
It is our hope that the organisation of a major event like the one European Athletics entrusted us with can be a key driver of athletics popularity in the country and can bring us in closer contact with the larger European family of sports professionals and enthusiasts. You can be assured that the Athletic Federation of Serbia, along with countless employees and volunteers engaged on this task, will do everything within our power to make your stay at the SPAR European Cross Country Championships worth remembering.
I look forward to meeting all of you in Belgrade and showing you the best contemporary Serbia has to offer.

8. OMEGA
OMEGA provides world-class timekeeping for Europe’s cross country athletes
OMEGA looks forward to bringing its unparalleled sports timekeeping expertise to
Belgrade for the 20th SPAR European Cross Country Championships.
OMEGA has been involved in athletics timekeeping for more than 80 years. In 1932, its
pocket watch chronographs were already considered the most reliable instruments
available for measuring world-class performance at sporting events and OMEGA’s
reputation was such that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) asked the firm to
supply all sports timing devices for use at the Olympic Games to be held that year in Los
Angeles. The company was happy to oblige, and delivered 30 OMEGA chronographs,
accompanied by an expert watchmaker, to ensure precise timekeeping and reliable
results from all the competitions. OMEGA has continued to develop and deliver state-
of-the-art sports timing and measurement systems ever since, and at the London 2012
Olympic Games, it assumed the Official Timekeeper role for the 25th time. Preparations
are well underway for the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games and the Rio 2016 Olympic
Games.
Every year, OMEGA’s experts deploy teams of timekeeping professionals to sporting
events around the world, armed with a veritable arsenal of advanced sports
timekeeping and measurement equipment. Their innovative systems include starting
blocks and false-start detection systems and the latest photo-finish cameras for the
sprints and middle-distance events, as well as height and distance measurement
devices for field disciplines.
OMEGA records and displays the results with the world’s best equipment
OMEGA’s official timekeepers ensure timely delivery of the official results to everyone
involved in the competitions they support. At the events it serves, OMEGA is also
responsible for the competitor displays for the athletes and their support teams along
with the public displays to spectators at each venue. The official results are also
delivered in real time to broadcast, network and print media who in turn relay results
and commentary to remote audiences around the world.
Though each event requires a specific configuration of precisely tuned devices and
systems, perhaps the most famous of OMEGA’s timekeeping inventions is the photo-
finish camera. First developed for use at the London 1948 Olympic Games, these
cameras solved the problem of grouped finishes by enabling judges to separate the
winners from the runners-up. The OMEGA Scan’O’Vision cameras have evolved
continuously over the years and the current version, the Scan’O’Vision Star, provides
more than 2000 high-definition images of the participants as they cross the finish line.
OMEGA and athletics
While the number and variety of events make the Olympic Games the most famous,
complex and challenging of world championships, OMEGA’s track and field
timekeeping experts are busy every year at competitions around the world. Along with
the 2013 European Athletics Indoor, Under 23, Junior, Team and Cross Country
Championships, OMEGA has continued its relationship with the IAAF Diamond League,
serving as Official Timekeeper at its meets in the 2013 season.
OMEGA wishes the talented athletes participating in the SPAR European Cross Country
Championships an excellent event. We look forward to recording their record-setting
performances!
