11e Open de France de Footbag - Paris February 26-28, 2010

Grischa · Post by **Grischa** » 26 Oct 2009 01:57

You thought the 11e Open de France de Footbag would not happen â€¦ well we thought so too !!! But now Iâ€™m happy to announce that the ODF will be hosted for the 6th time in a row in Paris.

Due to a total lack of support from local authorities we were not able to book any gyms big enough to organize the ODF in 2009. Therefore we had to postpone the tournament to February 2010.

But we secured the Stade to Coubertin, one of Parisâ€™ first class venues. Those who attended the 2005 edition will remember this nice location.

The ODF is the largest indoor footbag competition in the World and will again be sanctioned by the IFPA. Last year over 100 footbag players and aficionados came to Paris.

In the next couple of weeks the ODF web site will be launched and online registration will be available on footbag.org.

Once again it will be one of the top footbag events this winter season in Europe. Make sure that you donâ€™t miss it!

What: 11e Open de France de Footbag
