European Go players


The board game of Go was created in East Asia, and is still dominated by Japan, Korea and China. However, since the late 1900s several high-level players have grown and become active in Europe.
Some of them are players from Asia who came to promote the game of go in Europe.
Mainly, though, the players were born in Europe, sometimes with strong support from Asian Go professionals, and a few of the Europeans have themselves become professional players.
In general, every country in Europe has its own national federation or association, which is affiliated to the European Go Federation, and each national body manages the activities linked to the game of go in their own country.
The activities are almost exclusively undertaken by volunteers.
