Ecsa Hammer 20 YEARS OF ECSA

The ECSA year 2012 is starting up. Despite recent financial pressures, ECSA has a sporting calendar of which we are proud. This year, the white week ski event organized by Italy will start us off. Next on the agenda will be Malta hosting the six-a-side football event (the first event Malta will host), followed by Poland with table tennis, Belgium with a 20k run, Austria with the sniffer dog competition, the Netherlands with a four-day walking event, the United Kingdom with a golf event, the Czech Republic, France and Germany with various running events and then hopefully Turkey with a hiking event.

What started in 1992 with a small club of European Customs officers, grew to the current ECSA.  

ECSA now consists of twenty-three Member States: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Turkey and the United Kingdom. TAXUD participates as an observer and we hope to be joined by Switzerland this year.ecsa20years

20 Years of ECSA; 20 years of Customs sports activities, friendships and mutual understanding. Well done to the organisers, well done to all the participants of the various events. Well done to the committee members. And last but not least, well done to all the Directors of Customs administrations who allowed us to organise ECSA events and participate at events. We will celebrate our 20th anniversary during the six-a-side tournament in Malta and the sniffer dog competition in Austria.

Thank you for visiting our website and please take a look at our calendar and participate in one of our events and become an ECSA family member!
