2An invitation to participatein the World University Shooting Sport Championshipin Bydgoszcz

It is with great pleasure that we received the news of our city having been selected the host of the World University Shooting Sport Championship.

Sporting events organized in Bydgoszcz, and there are many in our city’s busy calendar each year, always carry the promise of great fun and excitement. Nonetheless, they also pose a great challenge, as we strive to provide visitors and participants with the highest organizational standards. Things will not be any different this September, but the combined forces of Kazimierz Wielki University’s Sports Association and the Zawisza Sports Club of Bydgoszcz will no doubt ensure the highest level of organization.

What will be awaiting you here in Bydgoszcz – excellent young shooters – enthusiastic fans, traditional Polish hospitality, and interesting national cuisine – but above all else, here you will experience the unique atmosphere of the city, where masters of sport feel truly welcome. All this will help you to achieve the desired results in your competitions.

May Bydgoszcz be a city where your dreams are fulfilled.

You are hereby warmly invited to come here – we hope to see you in September!

Bydgoszcz - the capital of the Kujawsko-Pomorskie voivodeship, a city with three state universities and other universities and colleges. Since the time the city was granted municipal rights by king Casmir the Great in 1346, it has grown to the rank of a dynamically developing economic centre. Bydgoszcz is a city located in northern Poland, on the Brda and Vistula rivers.

With a citypopulation of 358,614 (June 2014), and an urban agglomeration with more than 470,000 inhabitants, Bydgoszcz is the 8th-largest city in Poland. It has been the seat of Bydgoszcz County and the co-capital, with Toruń, of the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship since 1999.

Bydgoszcz is the seat of Kazimierz Wielki University, University of Technology and Life Sciences and a conservatory, as well as a Collegium Medicum of Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń. Bydgoszcz hosts the Filharmonia Pomorska concert hall, the Opera Nova opera house, and the Bydgoszcz Ignacy Jan Paderewski Airport.

Due to its location between the Vistula and Odra rivers, and the water course of the Bydgoszcz Canal, the city forms part of a water system connected via the Noteć, Warta, Odra.

Wyspa Młyńska (Mill Island) is among the most spectacular and atmospheric places in Bydgoszcz. What makes it unique is the location in the very heart of the city centre, just a few steps from the Old Market Square. It was the ‘industrial’ centre of Bydgoszcz in the Middle Ages and for several hundred years thereafter, and it was here that the famous royal mint operated in the 17th century. Most of the buildings which can still be seen on the island date from the 19th century, but the so-called Biały Spichlerz (the White Granary) recalls the end of the 18th century. However, it is the water, footbridges, historic red-brick tenement houses reflected in the rivers, and the greenery, including old chestnut trees, that create the unique atmosphere of the island.
