The ETTU Executive Board has analysed the situation and discussed at its recent meeting on 29th April.

Due to the rescheduling of major international and European events and competitions to the end of 2020 and to 2021 international travel restrictions which will last still for some time and the safety of all involved and proper start of the new ECC season 2020-2021 the ETTU Executive Board decided to cancel the European Club Competitions’ Semi-Finals and Finals of the 2019-2020 season (TTCL ECLW Europe Cup men and women).
