Extraordinary Meeting of the Council of Delegates in Salzburg
Announcement from the FIMS President, Prof. Fabio Pigozzi to All the FIMS Member National Associations
Dear Colleagues,
I have the pleasure to inform you that an Extraordinary Meeting of the Council of Delegates of the International Federation of Sports Medicine (FIMS), will be held on the occasion of the 7th European Sports Medicine Congress organized in Salzburg (AUT) on 26-29 October 2011.
This Extraordinary call, according to the decision taken by the FIMS Council of Delegates in Puerto Rico, is due to the fact that the International Federation of Sports Medicine, starting from 1st April 2011, moved its Headquarters to Lausanne, at “la Maison du Sport International”. This change needs to have the Statutes amended as per the Swiss Law, and approved by the Council of Delegates.
A letter of invitation to the FIMS Member National Associations containing all the relevant details has been already sent out by the Office of the Secretary General, Prof. Micheli together with a preliminary draft of the FIMS Statutes and Bylaws, which will need a final endorsement as per the Swiss Law by the FIMS Legal Advisor in Switzerland, Maitre François Carrard. The final version of the document will be presented upon approval by the Executive Committee during the FIMS Council of Delegates in Salzburg.
Prof. Fabio Pigozzi M.D.
FIMS President
