Dear friends!

The International Soccer Without Drugs Cup and Youth Forum is one of the most outstanding achievements in the history of EURO TC- European Treatment Centres for Drug Addiction.

Through means of sports the message of a healthy lifestyle and the success in overcoming addiction is spread all over Europe and is connecting our members in a demonstration of their valuable work. Mutual sharing of the benefits of therapy, presentation to the outside and providing added value to the Action Plan on Drugs of the European Commission is the target which we reach through these events.

Euro-TC highly welcomes the extremely appreciated efforts of the colleagues from the Ukraine and the Ukraine local Euro-Tc office in organising the International Soccer Cup 2012. A dedication more than usual made this meeting possible despite of lack of financial means.

The board of Euro -TC sends its very best wishes to the organiser. Our honorary Vice President and founder of the International Soccer Without Drugs Cup, Horst Brömer, is attending the meeting representing Euro-TC. For decades he has been dedicated to our goals and the board is more than happy to be represented by  him.

We wish you a successful, exhilarating and above all a fair tournament resulting in new and strengthening of old relations, friendships and cooperation.

Thomas Legl, Euro-TC President

Theater Therapy Seminar: 26/27 Nov 2010
For the fifth time euro-TC organized an International Theater Therapy Seminar, this time in Reichenau an der Rax, Austria, which is where euro-TC member facility Knappenhof is located. This beautiful ambience, surrounded by mountains and nature provided the perfect background to an intense and successful Therapy Seminar.

Groups from 5 euro-TC members from 4 different countries took part: 

Tannenhof Berlin Brandenburg e.V. – Germany

CEIS Mestre – Italy

Villa Renata – Italy

Leo Amici – Hungary

Knappenhof – Austria

After a first get-together on the evening after everyone had safely arrived the trainers were introduced to the groups.

Early the next morning, the groups were formed and the work was started right away. Given the umbrella term of “shadow work” as a guideline, all trainers developed their own little pieces in which the shadows played a more or less leading role. Shadows should be viewed in regard to the famous swiss psychiatrist and psychologist Carl Gustav Jung, who circumscribed shadows as follows:

"Beneath the social mask we wear every day, we have a hidden shadow side: an impulsive, wounded, sad, or isolated part that we generally try to ignore. The Shadow can be a source of emotional richness and vitality, and acknowledging it can be a pathway to healing and an authentic life. We meet our dark side, accept it for what it is, and we learn to use its powerful energies in productive ways. The Shadow knows why good people sometimes do "bad" things. Romancing the Shadow and learning to read the messages it encodes in daily life can deepen your consciousness, imagination, and soul." Each of the trainers had a different approach of implementing the shadows in the short pieces of drama. At the end of the second workshop day all groups took part in the final performance at Schloß Wartholz, which was open to the public. Famous Austrian Kammerschauspielerin Maresa Hörbiger hosted the introduction and welcome by presenting several short written pieces on the relation of theater and therapy. Some of the treatment facilities work with theater on a regular basis with their patients, and thus had already prepared pieces of drama with them. At the final show altogether 7 pieces were presented:

One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest by Tannenhof Berlin Brandenburg e.V.
Workshop group of Timea Kiss
Workshop Group of Giuliano Morasco
Workshop Group of Maria Wechselberger
Ragnatella by Villa Renata
Victory by Leo Amici
Workshop Group of Oliver Pernhaupt

  The whole event was a real success, patients were surprised about newly discovered abilities and proud of themselves. The audience was highly entertained and touched by the amazing skills of the amateur actors.
