European Yo-Yo Championship
# European Yo-Yo Championship

The European Yo-Yo Championship (EYYC) is the European competition of yo-yo organized and sanctioned by the International Yo-Yo Federation (IYYF), and is one of 4 annual multi-national yo-yo competitions from which winners receive seeds to compete in the semi-finals of the annual World Yo-Yo Contest.

## Contests

EYYC has 5 European Title Divisions in 2011.

## Participating nations

Participating nations are mainly, but not limited to nations situated in the continent of Europe. Exceptions have been made for some non-European countries in West Asia such as Armenia in West Asia and past Republics of the Soviet Union, and most recently Israel. These countries are permitted to compete at the discretion of the International Yo-Yo Federation (IYYF), either due to their geographical distance from their respective multi-national competitions, or due to the lack of a multi-national competition in their respective continent.

The following list shows countries which are permitted to participate as of EYYC 2015.
