The Swiss city of St. Gallen hosted Secretary General of the European University Sports Association (EUSA) Mr Matjaz Pecovnik, who travelled to St. Gallen to meet different stakeholders related to EUSA, the European Universities Golf Championship 2015, the Swiss University Sports and Credit Suisse.

He assisted EUSA Vice-President Mr Leonz Eder and EUSA Technical Delegate for Tennis Mr Daniel Studer during a presentation about EUSA and the EUC Golf in a meeting of the Heads of Administration of St. Gallen University under the leadership of Mr Markus Brönnimann, Executive Director.



While Mr Eder, who is also the Head of Sports at St. Gallen University, one of Europe's leading business universities, presented the structure and activities of EUSA, his deputy Mr Studer gave an overview of the EUC Golf to be held from September 14-20, 2015.
