About the Workshop

A training programme for Tournament Directors who are not yet on the Official TD Register of the EBL/WBF.

The Tournament Director Workshops are designed for TDs who are not on the Official TD Register of the EBL/WBF.

The aim is to support local TD training in the NBOs by improving the knowledge and synchronizing the work and methodology of TDs. Special care will be taken to improve the TD's work in the small federations.

The language of instruction is English, and a working knowledge of English is required.

The path to the WBF/EBL Director level

Participants who are successful in the Workshops will be invited to the next Max Bavin TD Course, where they will have the opportunity of achieving the level of WBF/EBL Director.
