1 Welcome Words by the Brandenburg Canoe Association

Ladies and Gentlemen,

dear canoeists of the International Brandenburg Cup,

Brandenburg is the state with the most water in the Federal Republic of Germany, which seems to be

a given for the inhabitants of Brandenburg. We rarely take the time to notice this water treasure on our

doorstep. This changes suddenly when it attracts canoeists from all over the world to the regatta

course in Brandenburg an der Havel. This course is known across the borders of Brandenburg and

Germany and has developed into an important meeting point for water sports.

The traditional regatta course celebrated its 50th birthday in 2019. This course is known beyond the

borders of Brandenburg and Germany and has developed into an important meeting place for water

sports. Since 1883, people have been paddling in Brandenburg an der Havel. A few years later,

canoeists also took over the waters of the city. The unique natural landscape in the middle of the

Beetzsee, the high standard of the technical equipment, the generous and multifunctional buildings as

well as the many committed organizers and volunteers have contributed to establish this regatta

course as an ideal place for the organization of international competitions. The cosmopolitan and

hospitable city of Brandenburg an der Havel will once again be an excellent host.

Everyone is welcome - whether Brandenburgers or guests, canoeists or non-canoeists - and can

become part of this event. As President of the Brandenburg Canoeing Association I would like to invite

all interested junior athletes, trainers and officials as well as guests and spectators personally and on

behalf of the organizing committee.

I am very pleased to assume the patronage of the Brandenburg Cup. On one of the most beautiful

regatta courses in Germany more than 300 participants in the boat classes Kayak and Canadian will

measure their strength.

I wish all young athletes a good portion of luck and maximum success at the International

Brandenburg Cup, as well as the visitors many nice emotional moments while cheering and watching.

We would like to thank the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport of the State of Brandenburg, the

City of Brandenburg an der Havel, the Organising Committee, the sponsors and volunteers who

support the preparation and organisation of this International Brandenburg Cup.

Dajana Pefestorff

President

Brandenburg Canoe Association
