ISSUE OF THE WORLD HANG-GLIDING XC CLASS 5, 2 AND WOMEN

The 2020 events have been cancelled. So far, these events have been organised as
stand-alone or combined in different ways, even once including Sport. Currently,
there is a discussion within the CIVL Hang Gliding Committee on what could be
the best solutions acceptable by organisers.

It is not impossible that a World Class 5 and/or Women will be organised along
with the 2021 Class 1 event in Krushevo.
