Racket sports at EuroGames 2020 in Düsseldorf
Tennis
Based on the huge success of the Gay German Open as part of the GLTA, tennis at EuroGames 2020 will be big. We have managed to get the renowned Rochus-Club to host the matches on their beautiful premises, which also include a heated outdoor pool!
Badminton
Badminton has been part of the Düssel-Cup for nine years. Based on that, we will organise a singles, doubles and mixed competition. The tournament takes place at Castello Düsseldorf, a highly professional event and sports center with high ceilings, awesome views for spectators and the possibility to offer a number of 16 courts!
Table tennis
Table tennis is a key sport in Düsseldorf. Its main club is the “Bayern München” of Table tennis. The world championships 2017 also took place in Düsseldorf at the German national training centre. The EuroGames will take place on the centre court at that same venue.
Golf
With a high number of world-class golf courses in Düsseldorf, we have booked one of Germany’s most prestigious courses, the Club Hubbelrath, for the golf competition. It will be organised by the Rainbow Golfers Germany association.
Squash
We have secured know-how for squash and booked a location that also hosts Germann squah league games, to make squash part of the EuroGames 2020.
