Annual conventions
The Annual Convention is organised alternately by our members in their home city where regulations, projects, goals, communication & marketing, finances, quality meeting, code of conduct, schedule and admissions are
discussed and decided together.
However, the governing body of the EAP Association is the General Assembly. Its Board of Officers is elected for three years. It is composed by a president, a vice-president, a general secretary, a treasurer.
The statutory General Assembly precedes the Convention.

Bienvenidos al 31 congreso anual del circuito EAP.
Palafrugell entró en contacto con el circuito en invierno de 1991 y marcó un antes y un después en el atletismo de nuestra ciudad.
El 16 de mayo de 1992 organizó el primer meeting internacional de atletismo que se ha ido organizando durante 28 ediciones, contabilizando la participación de mas de 6000 atletas de 101 países de todo el mundo.
Nuestros atletas, especialmente los jóvenes, ya que el club es bastante modesto, han podido participar en muchas competiciones en el extranjero durante todos estos años.
La publicidad que ha hecho de Palafrugell el circuito y el meeting ha propiciado que anualmente se realicen campos de entrenamiento en nuestras pistas por parte de clubes y federaciones europeas e incluso de países mas lejanos.
Las estrechas relaciones con otros miembros han dado lugar a otras competiciones e intercambios, destacando el Encuentro de la Amistad, que se celebra anualmente y del que se acaba de celebrar la 26 edición el pasado mes de octubre.
Palafrugell organizó el congreso en 1995 y vuelve a organizarlo 26 años después, en el año del 50 aniversario del Club, que es quien cogerá el relevo al Ayuntamiento a partir de 2022 en la continuidad de la organización.
Os deseamos una feliz estancia entre nosotros
Welcome to the 31st annual convention of the EAP circuit.
Palafrugell came into contact with the circuit in the winter of 1991 and marked a before and after in the athletics of our city.
On May 16, 1992 it organized the first international athletics meeting that has been organized for 28 editions, counting the participation of more than 6000 athletes from 101 countries around the world.
Our athletes, especially young people, as the club is quite modest, have been able to participate in many competitions abroad during all these years.
Thanks to the publicity that has made from Palafrugell the circuit and the meeting European clubs and federations, even more distant countries, organize a lot of training camps on our track every years.
Close relations with other members have given rise to other competitions and exchanges, specially l’Incontro de l’Amicizia ( the Friendship Meeting), which is held annually and of which the 26th edition has just been held last October.
Palafrugell organized the congress in 1995 and organizes it again 26 years later, in the year of the 50th anniversary of the Club, which is who will take over from the City Council from 2022 in the continuity of the organization.
We wish you a happy stay with us
Bienvenue au 31e congrès annuel du circuit EAP.
Palafrugell est entré en contact avec le circuit à l’hiver 1991 et a marqué un avant et un après dans l’athlétisme de notre ville.
Le 16 mai 1992, il a organisé le première meeting et en 2021 il a arrivée a la 28 ème édition, comptant la participation de plus de 6000 athlètes de 101 pays de tout le monde.
Nos athlètes, surtout les jeunes, car le club est assez modeste, ont pu participer à de nombreuses compétitions à l’étranger pendant toutes ces années.
Merci a la publicité qui a fait de Palafrugell le circuit et le meeting nombreaux stages d’entraînement se realisent chaque anné sur nos installations par des clubs et fédérations européens et même de pays plus éloignés.
Des relations étroites avec les autres membres ont donné lieu à d’autres competitions et échanges, principalement le Rencontre d’Amitié, qui s’organose chaque année et dont la 26e édition vient de se tenir en octobre dernier.
Palafrugell a organisé le congrès en 1995 et l’organise à nouveau 26 ans plus tard, l’année du 50e anniversaire du Club, qui prendra la relève du conseil municipal à partir de 2022 dans la continuité de l’organisation.
Nous vous souhaitons un bon séjour avec nous
Benvenuti al 31° congresso annuale del circuito EAP.
Palafrugell è entrato in contatto con il circuito nell'inverno del 1991 e ha segnato un prima e un dopo nell'atletica della nostra città.
Il 16 maggio 1992 ha organizzato il primo meeting internazionale di atletica leggera che è stato organizzato per 28 edizioni, contando la partecipazione di oltre 6000 atleti provenienti da 101 paesi di tutto il mondo.
I nostri atleti, soprattutto i giovani, poiché il club è piuttosto modesto, hanno potuto partecipare a molte competizioni all'estero durante tutti questi anni.
La pubblicità che ha reso de Palafrugell il circuito e il meeting ha portato ai campi di allenamento annuali sulle nostre piste da parte di club e federazioni europee e anche di paesi più lontani.
Stretti rapporti con gli altri soci hanno dato vita ad altri orgnizazioni e scambi, como l'Incontro dell'Amicizia, che si tiene annualmente e di cui si è appena tenuta la 26esima edizione lo scorso ottobre.
Palafrugell ha organizzato il congresso nel 1995 e lo organizza di nuovo 26 anni dopo, nell'anno del 50 ° anniversario del Club, che è chi prenderà il posto del Consiglio comunale dal 2022 nella continuità dell'organizzazione.
Vi auguriamo un felice soggiorno con noi.

Organiser of the 31st Convention
Meeting director of the Palafrugell Costa-Brava meeting
