For what will be the second time in its history the Tug of War Association of Scotland is looking forward to hosting the World Indoor Championships.The event will run from Thursday 23rd to Sunday 26th February inclusive with the competition venue being the Bell Sports Centre at Perth.
Scotland last hosted these championships in the year 2004 when they took place at the Kelvin hall in Glasgow.In the intervening years the Scotland Association, although relatively small in numbers, has gained a well deserved reputation as one of the top indoor exponents in the world.
Having visited the Bell Centre during last year’s United Kingdom Championships I feel sure that it will provide an excellent competition arena for the world championships.Of course it is well known that the Ladies 540K event will act as the qualifying competition for the 2013 World Games in Colombia.There are indications that some countries are making a special effort in that particular context.
I trust that we will see a large turnout of clubs and countries in Scotland and I look forward to an excellent championship being enjoyed by all.
Cathal McKeever.
TWIF President.
