Sharon Ronen certainly deserves all honours becoming the WUSV champion last year in Krefeld. Whe were all very impressed with her performance. But, Sharon is not the first female Worldchampion, that honour goes to the Dutch Anja vd Meijden, EUSV champion in 1983 in Hasselt, Belgium. In those years countries like USA, Canada, Japan and other countries outside Europe were allready present and competing for the title. In 1988 EUSV was changed into WUSV, but that was the only change made.

For this upcoming seminar with Sharon I wish everyone involved all the success possible.

Still not correct! Other countries were invited, and other countries competited but it was still the European Union Championship. If anyone won the event they were the Euronpean Champion. We may have wanted to call it a world championship but it wasn't. I remember in France I walked up to Ronny and said win one more and you will be tied with Fritz. His response was, Fritz won the European Championship and that Fritz had to catch him.

Sharon Ronen it the first woman WUSV (World Union) World Champion......End of story!

Nonsens. It wasn't a European championship but an unofficial worldchampionship under coverage of the EUSV. Other continents didn't have an Union, therefore the countries were all member of the EUSV. Fact is also that starting in 1975 all countries with a EUSV membership were invited. The EUSV members were coming from Asia, North- and South America, Europe and Africa. So it was an unofficial World EUSV championship. According to your vision countries outside Europe would have attended but were not in competition. That's not true.

It also a testimony of shortsightiness to think otherwise, because in 1988 nothing changed besides the name EUSV. Following your method of thinking the championships before 1988 were not so competitive and when the name changed into WUSV they were?

So Anja vd Meijden was the first female EUSV/WUSV champion in the history. End of story!

I think it will be very informative to see how Sharon trains and hear how she won the Worlds.

I agree with Connie. Whether she is the first woman under the metric system or by quantum mechanics is irrelevant. She has a major accomplishment, and obviously a great deal can be learned from her.

So true Nia, I'm going to see and learn. It is a story I would love to know more about. A friend of mine said regarding seminars and training methods: "Knowledge is knowledge."

As a point of interest, I checked the WUSV catalogue and saw that Sharon Ronen's dog just turned 4 years old on September 27, 2009. That is a pretty young dog to get WUSV Champion.
