Dear Madam/Sir,

we have pleasure to invite you to the most significant IDSF dance competition in Croatia -
"10th Croatia Open Varaždin 2010.".

The former capital of Croatia and old baroque city of Varaždin is situated in the north part of Croatia, 15 km from Slovenian border, 30 km from Hungarian border and 60 km from Austrian border.

Please, take notice of the high score of IDSF ranking points.
The competiton has an addition of minimum +90% to the basic points in total
(minimum coefficient of competition: 1,9).

Because:

13 adjudicators from 13 IDSF member countries are judging in Varaždin. That means an addition to the basic points of 25%
as there will be (as always) more than 48 couples in the competition in Varaždin, the basic points get an addition of 25%
as there are usually couples from more than 15 IDSF member associations in Varaždin, the basic points get another addition of 40%.

There is also prize money for IDSF International Open Standard and IDSF International Open Latin competitions.

Kindest regards,
organizing committee of Croatia Open Varaždin 2010.
