Yevpatoriya ,Ukraine,  is a Black Sea port, a rail hub, and a vacation and health resort. Yevpatoriya stands on the site of the ancient Greek colony of Kerkinitida, founded in the 6th cent. BC.

In the 1st cent. BC the area was captured by the Pontian king Mithradates VI (Mithradates Eupator), for whom the city is named.  The name of the city is sometimes transliterated Evpatoriya or Eupatoria.

The championship takes place annually in May between the 1st and the 7th and is open to all countries.
