Vis Moot 2020/2021 - It's a wrap!

Vis Moot 2020/2021 has come to its end and we’ve had a blast! So how did we do? To put it briefly – it was the most successful year for Masaryk University in the history!

12 Apr 2021

In Hong Kong rounds, we got to the elimination rounds and placed among 17-32 best teams out of nearly 150 teams (exact placement is not known). Given the extremely competitive level of the Vis Moot, this is truly a huge success which Masaryk University has never achieved in this competition before. Our team also won honourable mention for the best memorandum for Claimant and Honza Šlehofer and Dan Romashko won honourable mentions for the best speakers.

In Vienna rounds, the luck was not on our side and we sadly didn’t make it to the elimination rounds (the actual placement is yet to be disclosed). The important thing is that our team Anna Vrbíková, Barbora Autratová, Pavlína Tomečková and Vojtěch Pospíšil couldn’t be nothing but proud of themselves how great performance of skills they showed after 10 months of preparations.

Here, as the coaches of this year’s Masaryk University team, we would like to thank:

• MEMBERS OF THE TEAM who as students had the courage to represent Masaryk University in the most competitive law student competition in the world, who dedicated most of their free time to research, drafting memoranda and training for oral hearings and who made all proud that Masaryk University is their alma mater,

• PARTNERS who provided our team with financial and other support so needed in this competition,

• OTHER TEAMS who we met either during trainings or during finals rounds,

• ALL THOSE WHO HELPED with memoranda revisions and oral trainings,

• and to ALL THOSE WHO WISHED US LUCK because we surely needed some of it.
