Poreč in Croatia is set to host the first Continental Championships in the under-22 age category from March 11 to 24, followed by the Youth European Championships for under-18s in Bulgaria's capital in Sofia from April 10 to 22.

The delayed Women's World Boxing Championships in Istanbul is scheduled for May 6 to 21, coinciding with a crucial IBA Electoral Congress.

This is set to be followed immediately by the EUBC's Men's European Championships in Armenian capital Yerevan until May 31, and the Women's European Championships in Ulan-Ude in Russia.

The Schoolboys and Schoolgirls Championships are calendared for August 10 to 31 in Erzurum in Turkey, before a busy year for the EUBC is rounded off by the Junior European Championships in Italian city Montesilvano from September 23 to October 2.

Italian official Falcinelli believes the schedule will pose challenges but also opportunities for the EUBC.

"It will therefore be a year of great emotions and strong commitment for our athletes, but it will put a strain on the technical and organisational structures of our National Federations, which show new enthusiasm and new confidence in the new IBA leadership," the President said.

He added that the EUBC and IBA, under the guidance of Russian President Umar Kremlev, would provide support to event organisers, but that they had a responsibility to ensure the smooth running of competitions.

"The IBA and the EUBC will be at their side, but the quality and success of the events are always linked to the LOCs [Local Organising Committees] and national managers who must ensure the necessary financial resources, promotion, logistical organisation, communication and media coverage of events," Falcinelli said.

"Our firm intention is to move forward until the end of the competition programme without any further stops or postponements due to the persistence of the pandemic.

"From March to the end of September, we must hope that everyone can participate without inconvenience of infections, quarantines and health requirements that vary from country to country.

"It will be essential to provide all the information well in advance to prepare for entry into the organising country without the risk of not being admitted to competitions."

Falcinelli hopes that "at least the number of teams from previous editions" will be able to compete.

As well as the IBA, the EUBC is set to stage an Elective Congress by the end of April this year.

Falcinelli first assumed the Presidency in 2012.
