Dear Colleguaes!
I wrote an open letter to the captains concerning the vote about the next WC. It is an important issue, so I would like to share with You all my thoughts. Thanks for Your attention!

Dear friends,
After the first few votes I decided that I would write down some of my thoughts and questions only at the end, because even then it was clear that the ’big’ majority would choose…

I would take the right to give myself an answer to this question. It’s not my intention to impose my opinion to anyone, rather my intention is bona - fide.
As a representative of…

La notizia mi ha molto colpito. Herbert ed io siamo stati per lunghissimi anni capitani dei rispettivi teams. Amici fuori dl campo ma avversari senza compromessi in campo. Herbert ha scritto una pagina bellissima della vita della nostra Associazione come giocatore, come membro del Board e come organizzatore. Ha dato vita ad alcuni dei più riusciti appuntamenti annuali dell' Aitj da quello di Badgastein, a quello di Disentis, a quello memorabile di Bonn: Grazie Herbert. Adalberto Minazzi

This was long ago...16 years...but there are moments one doesn´t forget. In 1996 we organized our first WC in the Slovak spa Piestany. During the first days I thought things went quite well, tournament progressed according to plan, weather if not sunny, at least fair for playing, there was a trip somewhere...until the captains´ meeting the thrid day. There, Herbert took the fllor and he was merciless.
„You showed us this and this, OK. Do you expect people here will write something…

Herbert was a great inspiration to me, struggling as I have been for years to get together a British journalists' team. How he managed to recruit such a high quality, large German team for so long is beyond me. Well done to him and all the German players. His death will be a huge loss to us all.
Herbert and I disagreed in Prague about the website. I was much keener than he was for a new means of communication to go ahead. But he treated all disagreements courteously, like the…

Bojan Budja is the old and new President of the AITJ. Budja won on Wednesday evening against Ladislav Kubis. The new Board will have only seven members. On Sunday the extraordinary General assembly (new statutes and legal association) could not be held as two-third of the registred countries were not present in Budva Montenegro.

The General Assembly of the AITJ has decided in August 2010 that the associaton should
be properly registered with new statutes. This decision in Belgrade means that all the captains must meet in a extraordinary General assembly.
Less countries in Budva – no extraordinary GA
Journalists have been meeting to compete on the tennis courts of Europe and once in Canada for the past 35 years. It all started with an idea by the Italians who established the first tournament in Venice in 1978. In the last years 100-170 journalists from 20-25 countries in all age categories came together. The 35. World Championships 2012 will be held in Italy (Toscany) in September. In May journalists compete regularly in the European Championships for Journalist Tennis Players in Portschach, Austria. more…
