Since the organizational meeting of Asena Hajditodorov (Bulgaria), Igor Mazurenko and Anna Korzeniewska (Poland) in Rovani (Finland) in November 2000 when decision to transform the Joint Stock Company "Euro Club" and establish  for the organization of Professional Armwrestling League in Bulgaria was made. The first tournament organized by the PAL was the only worldwide professional league on the 21st July 2001 in Gemini Entertainment Centre in Gdynia (Poland). This was the first competitions of eights (league in the 78kg class), which started operations of the PAL.
