Battle For Belgrade 2025 je dvadeset i treće po redu takmičenje koje se održava u Srbiji. Svako može da se takmiči, nezavisno od njihove nacionalnosti ili godina, ali moraju biti upoznati sa WCA Regulacijama i moraju da ih pročitaju pre takmičenja.
Ovo takmičenje će se razlikovati od uobičajenih takmičenja koja smo do sada organizovali. Takmičari će biti podeljeni u 2 tima i zajedno će pokušati da ostvare što veći broj poena da bi osvojili nagrade. Pročitajte detaljnije o konceptu takmičenja ovde.
