JJEU General Assembly elections and Agenda

Changing of the Statutes and Elections of the BoardFollowing the JJIF Board recommendation from October 2011 and paragraph 9 of JJIF Statutes, also the fact that JJEU Board has lost a President, the JJEU General Assembly 2012 in Genoa is the electoral for the whole Board.

JJEU Board is therefore proposing a change of paragraph 3.2.1.2 and 3.2.1.4 of JJEU Statutes which shorten the existing mandate of the existing Board.

To the paragraph 6.1 is added additional text in the new article 6.1.4:

“To harmonize the mandates and electoral processes with the JJIF Statute JJEU General Assembly 2012 is electoral for the whole JJEU Board. JJEU Board remain of four persons: President, Vice President, General Secretary, Treasurer.

Electoral procedures for 2012 electoral GA are following JJIF Statutes.

Up to the next JJEU General Assembly new JJEU Board will prepare and file to JJIF Board for approval the new JJEU Statutes, harmonized with the new JJIF one as indicated in the 12.2 JJIF Statutes”.

Explanation: as JJEU Board lost the President Christian Blareau in 2012 GA we should regularly have electoral congress for the position of the President. Above all JJIF Statutes regulates the mandated of the continental unions also as to the Summer Olympic Games. To avid mid-term mandates and to harmonize mandate with the JJIF activities JJIF Board recommended to JJEU Board to prepare elections for the whole JJEU Board in GA Genoa.

Candidature procedures (with the approval of JJIF) have therefore already been called out by JJIF Statutes and extraordinary change of the JJEU Statutes has been prepared in that part (as proposed above). JJEU Board decided that for the legal matters prepare changes of the electoral part of the JJEU Statutes only with aim to allow newly elected JJEU Board to prepare more comprehensive harmonization of Statutes the way they see it fit.

We have the following candidates JJEU BOARD positions at 2012 electoral congress in Genoa:

JJEU General Assembly in Genoa

JJEU Board ELECTIONS in Genoa - deadline for candidature is March 10, 2012

As indicated in the JJIF Board Minutes of January 2012 and already published in this site, this year is an election year, both at the level of the Continental Unions, and at the level of the JJIF. According to the Statutes, the JJEU Elections General Assembly will be held on the day prior to the European Championship in Genoa (May 10, 2012). Also according to the Statues, the candidates for the positions in the Continental Union/JJIF Boards must submit their candidacies at least 3 months before the day of the elections. This would mean that the deadline for candidacies for JJEU Board was February 10, 2012.

However, due to multiple issues, such as the low number of working members on the JJEU Board, communication problems, e-mail/Internet issues, the deadline for the JJEU Board elections has passed before the JJEU Board/General Secretary had a chance to send out to the countries the Invitation for the Elections General Assembly.

Because of this situation, the JJEU and JJIF Board are sending out this appeal to the JJEU member countries to remember that elections will be held on May 10, 2012, for all positions on the Board. The deadline for submitting the candidacies has been reduced in this exceptional situation (and due to prepared changes of JJEU Statutes) to March 10, 2012.

Also please note: the candidature must be supported with short CV and a support of National Federation. The candidates should apply for all positions within the Board they are interested in. The candidate not elected for one position is not automatically candidate for another position is this has not been indicated in the candidature already.

The positions to be elected by JJEU GA are:
JJEU President
JJEU Vice-president
JJEU Treasurer
JJEU General Secretary
JJEU Auditors Committee (for this committee candidates may be presented directly at the GA).

We kindly ask all candidates to send their applications both to Mr. Robert Perc, JJEU GS, and to Mrs. Dana Murgescu, JJIF GS. Candidatures already received are valid.

It is also expected that further more JJEU GA gives the new JJEU Board mandate to nominate and appoint technical members to the Board and Committee Directors (and other responsibilities) for the future. This will be done after the constitution of the new Board. The proposal of JJEU Statutes will be presented also after March 10, together with the information of the candidates for various positions in the board. In principle no significant changes are proposed but mostly to harmonize JJEU Statutes with the JJIF one.

Candidates for future championships are also wellcome to present their candidature at the GA as we must prepare future big events calendar - National Federationa are kindly asked to indicate this to the JJEU GS before the GA.

Adriatic Cup 2012 Invitation

Ju-jitsu Adriatic Cup. Registriation deadline for 2012 tournaments up to 25.2.2012!

The principles and objectives
Contacts
Competition System and Registration 2012

Here are some basinc and important information for Adriatic Cup 2012. Upon initiative of sport enthusiasts and ju-jitsu experts in 2011 first (actually working) international TEAM championship was put in motion. First participating teams were from countries from former Yugoslavia. As we shall start with the countries more and less related to the Adriatic Sea the common idea is to use most suitable and neutral name – Adriatic Cup Ju-jitsu. With the name of the project we have localised the area of beginning, described name and the way we are having competitions.

In the start, to allow smooth beginning, only male categories proposed to participate (following the JJIF weight and age categories). As the cup will grove so the number of categories will rise as well.
Initially nine clubs from five countries met in the round system where each team has met with another team in four different tournaments: Maribor (Slovenia), Budva (Montenegro), Modriča (Bosnia and Herzegovina), Temerin (Serbia). Additionally the fifth tournament as a final tournament took place in Skopje (Macedonia).

The first Ju-jitsu Adriatic Cup winner is the team of Ju-jitsu Club ADK Maribor (Slovenia). High representatives of the state and JJIF participated at final tournament and awarding ceremony: JJIF President Panagiotis Theodoropoulus , JJIF Vice President Tomo Borisov, Ministry of Sport of Macedonia Lazar Popovski and Adriatic Cup Director Karl Kelc.
