The Chairman of the organising committe István Becsky, highlighted, that since 2015, they have organised various 3×3 competitions on the main square of Debrecen, and since then the Hungarian national team has won two European Championship titles and a World Championship bronze, so in my opinion we are excellent hosts of the tournaments.
