CESH was officially founded at the 3rd Forum under the name \u201cEuropean Committee for Sport History\u201d one day before the European College of Sport Science (ECSS), similar to which it became independent.<\/p>\n<p>CESH coordinates European projects on the history of physical education and sport to assure a better European and international cooperation. In particular, it helps in the exchange of ideas, students and staff between European universities, to assure a high standard of teaching in sport history, help young scholars in developing a European dimension of their work and prepare a European doctorate in sport history. CESH was an educational partner of the \u201cEuropean Year of Education Through Sport 2004\u201d (http:\/\/www.eyes-2004.info\/153.0.html). During the General Assemblies in Seville 2005 and in Vienna 2006 the official name of CESH was changed into European Committee for Sports History.<\/p>\n<h2>List of Presidents, Secretaries, Treasurers and Auditors of CESH (1995-today):<\/h2>\n<h3>Presidenti \/ Presidents:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Juan Antonio Simon Sanjurjo (2025-2029)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Daphn\u00e9 Bolz (2021-2025)<\/p>\n<p>Mike Huggins (2017-2021)<\/p>\n<p>Evangelos Albanidis (2013-2017)<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Loudcher (2009-2013)<\/p>\n<p>Stephan Wassong (2007-2009)<\/p>\n<p>Angela Teja (2005-2007)<\/p>\n<p>James Riordan (2003-2005)<\/p>\n<p>Teresa Gonzalez Aja (2001-2003)<\/p>\n<p>Joachim R\u00fchl (1999-2001)<\/p>\n<p>Wray Vamplew (1997-1999)<\/p>\n<p>Arnd Kr\u00fcger (1995-1997)<\/p>\n<h3>Segretari \/ general Secretaries:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Cl\u00e9ment Luy (2025-2029)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Florence Carpentier (2021-2025)<\/p>\n<p>Alejandro de la Viuda-Serrano (2017-2021)<\/p>\n<p>Daphn\u00e9 Bolz (2009-2017)<\/p>\n<p>Patrick Stumm (2005-2009)<\/p>\n<p>Stephan Wassong (2003-2005)<\/p>\n<p>Angela Teja (1999-2003)<\/p>\n<p>Joachim R\u00fchl (1995-1998)<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0Tesorieri \/ Treasuresr:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Deborah Guazzoni (2025-2029)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Daniele Serapiglia (2021-2025)<\/p>\n<p>Denias Jallat (2017-2021)<\/p>\n<p>Alejandro de la Viuda Serrano (2010-2017)<\/p>\n<p>Salavatore Finocchiaro (2009-2010)<\/p>\n<p>Thomas Zawadzki (2003-2009)<\/p>\n<p>Stephan Wassong (2001-2002)<\/p>\n<p>Norbert H\u00f6lting (1999-2000)<\/p>\n<p>Joachim R\u00fchl (1995-1998)<\/p>\n<h3>President-elect:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Pompiliu-Nicolae Constantin (in office 2029-2033)<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Revisori dei conti \/ Auditors :<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Thomas Bauer and Daniel Malanski (2025-2026)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lucie H\u00e9meury and Yann Descamps (2024-25)<\/p>\n<p>Andr\u00e9 Gounot and Alejandro Viuda-Serrano (2021-2022)<\/p>\n<p><!--StartFragment--><!--StartFragment-->Gherardo Bonini and Christodoulos Faniopoulos<!--EndFragment--> (2018-2021)<!--EndFragment--><\/p>\n<p>Arnd Kr\u00fcger and Dilwyn Porter (2016-2018)<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"messageContent\">Nikos Kameas and Evangelia Vouzanidou (2015-2016)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Mike Huggins and Evangelia Vouzanidou (2014-2015)<\/p>\n<p>Denis Jallat and Mike Huggins (2013-2014)<\/p>\n<p>Christodoulos Faniopoulos and Denis Jallat (2011-2013)<\/p>\n<p>Claus Tiedemann and Christodoulos Faniopoulos (2010-2011)<\/p>\n<p>Gigliola Gori and Claus Tiedemann (2009-2010)<\/p>\n<p>Christian Vivier and Evangelos Albanidis (2003-2008)<\/p>\n<p>Marcello Marchioni and Christian Vivier (2001-2003)<\/p>\n<p>Marcello Marchioni and Uriel Simri (2000)<\/p>\n<p>Salvatore Finocchiaro and Marcello Marchioni (1998-1999)<\/p>\n<p>Per J\u00f8rgensen (1996-1997)<\/p>\n<p><strong>National Sections<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The CESH statutes foresee the possibility to organise national sections and working groups:<br \/>\n\u201c10.
