When I said "open" above, I meant open to so-called non-Euro teams.
I think that qualification should be dependent on placing in previous tourneys held in the run-up to the event, which are themselves open to all. So instead of holding a Euro-quali tourney in London for London teams only, we might hold an tournament open to all teams, not just London teams.
Obviously, if there is a wild-card tourney, that should be open to all also.
Clearly, the designated qualifying tournaments would need to receive that designation in advance of the registration for that tournament. Using Greif Masters as an example, the tournament would have to have been accredited as a qualifying tournament for the Euro Champs BEFORE registration was opened by the Greif Masters organisers.
