Why did the CEB decrease the amount of players on the European Championships?
The Championships until Callans/France in April 2003 were played with 24 players.
While the system with 24 players was active, we had 22 European GP´s in 9 seasons.
Since we have to play with 16 players since 2005 we had 2 GP´s.
What happens next:
1. Now it is almost impossible to come to the EC´s with ranking points.
2. So the organisations or nations have no reason to organize a GP for the players, see above.
3. A lot of players spent a lot of money to get rankingpoints, who cares...
4. Five years after the last CEB-GP the ranking includes only the Nationals and the last EC.
5. After this there is no qualification possible and the "rankingplaces" will be used from the same players every time.
6. The decision to play the EC with 16 players will eliminate the ranking.
So again:
Why did the CEB decrease the amount of players on the European Championships?
