Course Setting Competition

A total of 15 entries were submitted for the competition. The high quality of the submissions proved that domestic course setters invested significant time, energy, and creativity into the task.
The four-member professional jury did not establish a ranking this time; instead, they aimed to identify the entries showing the greatest potential based on technical criteria. The jury selected four highlighted entries, and among them, three applicants accepted the invitation to take on professional roles within the WOC staff:
-
Ábel Györgyi (MOM)
-
Tamás Gyulai (SAS)
-
Kende Pál Kovács (TTE)
The fourth candidate preferred to focus on their competitive career and declined to participate in the staff’s work.
