INVITATION TO
ECA WILDWATER CANOEING CUP SPRINT RACE 3
FINAL
CELJE 2015
June 13, 2015
I am very happy we can welcome Europe's best wildwater
paddlers after Celje already hosted several top level sports
events.
Celje is recognizable sports city and canoeing has its
tradition in the city since 1946. It has become one of the
key water sports in the past years and still has a lot of
potential for development in the city of Celje.
I can only hope the top level canoeing events in Celje will
become annual and that canoeing world embraces Celje as
one of the important canoeing centres in Europe.
I wish all competitors a pleasant stay and many sport
success.
