Over 60 countries were present at the congress with 2 delegates from each.
The members of the current Board of Directors were re-elected.
The world champs bid was near the end.
Mark Banicevich moved the directors out of the way and had Masters Daher, Davidson and myself stand at the front.
He then did an amazing presentation.
This was followed by the video Carl Matthews had prepared.
On a giant screen with a great sound system it went down really well.
(A big thanks to Carl and Anne!)
All the directors then congratulated us with hugs all round.
A vote was taken and NZ was declared the host for the ITF World Championships 2011.
Later there was discussion about whether to continue with combined juniors and seniors,
and Poland, the main opponent to it, said because the NZ bid was so strong,
they moved to retain it combined at least until 2011 to support us. That was great!
