I am hopeful that you and association are managing through these difficult times, with all the disruptions to competition on all levels, finances, and health. We are hopeful that there is a return to “normal” at the national level in the second half of the year in many countries and we are still confident that we will be able to hold our full WFDF 2022 World Championship event calendar. Due to the difficulties of navigating across global time zones, we will have an abbreviated schedule for the meeting and try to wrap it up in the two hours allotted, per the attached agenda. Our Annual Congress is composed of several types of discussions. Given the limited time that we have for our meeting, given that we span time zones across the entire globe, our primary focus of the meeting will be the business matters of the federation requiring voting approval of the members: approval of the proposed budget, acceptance of the financial statements, approval of the auditor, the annual risk assessment, and approval of the revised Bylaws.
