EUSA 2020-21 Magazine published

The European University Sports Association (EUSA) has published the annual edition of its magazine – the European University Sports Association Year Magazine 2020-21.

The magazine gives a comprehensive overview of the association and its undertakings over the past year, as the organisation continued with various events and activities despite the challenges posed by the global Coronavirus pandemic.

In the magazine you will be able to find the welcome address by the EUSA President, current information on the structure of EUSA, including its member associations, Executive Committee, the Commissions and the Secretariat.

The magazine then reports on several events and meetings organised by EUSA over the past 12 months, with the association maintaining open communication and dialogue with all its members across what was a challenging year for all.

Focus is then given to the EUSA Awards, recognising the achievements of individuals, universities and associations over the previous year, with an online EUSA Awards Ceremony this year also including a new category of awards to recognise the commitment and selflessness of various individuals and organisations in the field of university sport.
