_________________

A few minutes ago Tournament Management (represented by Luis Barbosa) informed Racketlon.com that the Portuguese Open (scheduled for 29 June - 1 July) will have to be postponed. His message (in excerpt) read as follows:

"We are sorry to inform FIR and all the racketloners that for sponsorship and logistic reasons we have to postpone the Portuguese Open to a future date.

Our main sponsor SportZone is about to open a shop in Tomar and just informed us work will not be finished in time to coincide with our first Racketlon tournament in the end of June as was their wish."

There is at present no official information available regarding the new date but tournament management has shown interest in early September.
