FYI -------- Original-Nachricht --------
Hallo Frisbee-Österreich, nicht zuletzt durch die „österr.
Beteiligung“ bei der AUDL wird auch hierzulande das
Thema Observer/Schiedsrichter intensiver diskutiert –
wir wollen euch informieren, dass das auch beim WFDF
Kongress in Sakai/Japan der Fall sein wird (siehe
unten)! Der ÖFSV-Vorstand May 14, 2012 Dear Congress
Member: The
Board of Directors, Executive Director, and I are
pleased to submit this briefing book to you in advance
of the annual Congress being held July 14-15 at the WFDF
World Ultimate and Guts Championship
in Sakai, Japan. It has
been a busy time for WFDF and we outline some of our
accomplishments in the President’s Report
later in this briefing book. I thank all of our board
members and especially ExComm members Sandie
Hammerly and Thomas Griesbaum for all their day-to-day
work. Further, we appreciate the efforts
of our first full-time Executive Director, Volker
Bernardi, whose significant Olympic Movement experience
has been invaluable to WFDF with our activities in the
last year and who is quickly coming up the
learning curve on the idiosyncratic characteristics of
flying disc sports. As we
did last year, our plan is to break up Congress into two
several hour sessions: Saturday before the
finals and Sunday morning to continue discussions. The
formal aspect of Congress involves votes on
business items before the Congress: technical approvals
and votes on the budget and auditor. We will
also present our 2011 financial statements, provide the
2012 risk assessment, review the data and opinions
expressed in the annual Census and Survey, provide an
update on upcoming events and disc sport
related matters, and give you an update on our IOC
application and anti-doping program. The
second aspect of Congress is even more valuable for us
all. We intend to host a discussion session
on both Saturday and Sunday on important issues facing
WFDF so that we can get the input of our
Members on a face-to-face basis. The format for the
discussions will begin with a 10-15 minute presentation
by representatives of a couple of our member
associations and then an open discussion period
among the entire Congress. On Saturday, the topic will
be: “Observers,
Referees, and the AUDL: Is it Ultimate without the Spirit of
the Game?” For
Sunday, we are considering several different
topics and will solicit input from members on the topic
of most interest through the Annual Opinion
Survey. We plan to solicit presenters and distribute
additional materials prior to the Congress. I look
forward to seeing as many of you as possible in Sakai
and encourage you to contact me if you have
any questions or concerns. Robert “Nob” Rauch President Mag. Claus
Lackerbauer ÖFSV - Kassier ZVR: 297193118 0664/3951765 __._,_.___
