Sling tournament in Carnuntum, Austria (Europe)
Sep 6th, 2024 at 7:26am
 
For anyone an Invitation:
On September 13th. At 6:00 p.m. there will be a tournament in Carnuntum, the 1st European Championship, modality tennis balls for safety reasons, with participants from five Nations already confirmed. If you may come, please send a short information to me via Messenger. There will be a number of reenactors, since the Roman Festival will then take place

I wish this could have been sent out sooner. Only a week notice is not enough time to plan Sad

Had this been announced like half a year ago I might have actually tried to get there. It's a road trip away for me.

I saw the messages from Pep about this.  It would be so awesome to go to a competition in Austria!  Unfortunately I also can't make it though.  The short notice as others have mentioned, and also my vacation time and money is wrapped up in other things.

I love that this competition is happening though.  It's so great to see other slinging competitions popping up.  This one, and Channing's Down South comp that happened earlier this year.  And Goober has his distance comp going too.  We need to get some slingers out there next year.

I'm very busy at the moment, as well as far away, but if any footage from it ends up on youtube I would love to watch it!

Do we maybe have a confirmation if this event will be held this year?

At the World Cup last year the Austrian guys were talking about having a tournament this year.  No word yet (that I'm aware of) on whether that will happen or not.

It would be lovely to have an event like that for the Central European crew.
Last year the heads up was just too close to the event.

100% agree.  I don't know if I'd be able to make it, but I'd love to see them doing one every year.  I've only met the guys who come to the Slinging World Cup.  Such a great group.  Love slinging with them!

Joe thank you for the kind words, slinging with you was definitively great as well!

There are so many thoughts about a tournament in Austria, maybe it would be best to share details of this in a separate post!

Definitely!  If you guys have another tournament in the works, feel free to start a new post with details or links.  We can pin it at the top.
