正文：

How much do you know about the work of the WCA Board? We want to share some information you may not know about it!

The World Cube Association is led by the WCA Board, consisting of Chris Hardwick, Ilkyoo Choi (최일규), Luis J. Iáñez, Pedro Santos Guimarães and Ron van Bruchem.

The WCA Board is responsible for the WCA organization as a whole. As part of their day-to-day work, they discuss issues that affect the WCA and advise the committees. The WCA Board oversees that the applications to hold WCA Competitions meet fair conditions to give all the world similar chances to compete, and finally approves and announces the competitions accordingly. After competitions, they read reports from the WCA delegates about competitions in order to be up to date on the WCA activity worldwide and take part in the discussion of any incidents that occur.

The Board is also responsible for helping the WCA fulfill its mission: “more competitions in more countries with more people and more fun, under fair and equal conditions.” This means spreading cubing to new communities and countries and working together with the Senior Delegates to open up cubing to even more people!

WCA被WCA董事会所领导，由以下Chris Hardwick, Ilkyoo Choi (최일규), Luis J. Iáñez, Pedro Santos Guimarães and Ron van Bruchem人员所组成。

WCA大体上对WCA组织负责。作为WCA董事会日常工作的一部分，他们会讨论影响WCA的问题并且向组委会提供建议。WCA董事会监督那些申请举办WCA认证的比赛并且向全世界提供公平的比赛环境与给予相近的机会去竞争。因此，我们最终会决定批准和宣布WCA所认证的比赛。比赛后，为了提升WCA全球活动质量，他们会阅读来自WCA代表的比赛报告并且参与关于讨论任何所遇到的事件。

Meet a WCA Official

Meet Ron van Bruchem!

A cofounder of the WCA and current WCA board member from The Netherlands, Ron has been cubing for nearly 40 years. “I got my first cube at the age of 13, in July 1980 when I was in hospital for 8 weeks. A friend's mother had brought it from former Czechoslovakia. She said I could only leave the hospital if I had solved it. There were no books on the cube and there was no internet. So, I had to figure it out myself. I had my first successful solve after two weeks. When the cube came out in The Netherlands I was the only person who could solve it, so every day I had tens of kids at my door, asking me for help. This made me some kind of local celebrity and also fired up my enthusiasm to keep on cubing.”

His first competitive experience was at World Championships 2003 in Toronto and he still goes to competitions all around the world such as Mongolian Open 2013, TCG & Friends 2015 in Peru, and, his favorite, World Championships 2011 in Bangkok! “We have a wonderful community of friendly people from around the globe who share the same passion. I have the privilege to travel to many countries and everywhere I see a similar kind of spirit: friends helping each other and having fun together with puzzles. We are the same in being a little bit different. Among cubers I have this special feeling of being connected through this strange but fun hobby. I am especially proud that somehow our community found a way to have this special atmosphere and sustain it, even now that we have grown so large. I enjoy watching videos from remote countries and see that this atmosphere is the same, wherever you go to a competition.”

For the future of cubing, he wants to make sure everyone can participate in competitions close to their home and he also understands that we need to manage the growing size of competitions and competitors as we expand into new areas. Not only does he have goals for the WCA, but he has goals for himself: “I turned 50 on April 20 and I am aspiring to be the first cuber over 50 to solve Rubik's Cube in under 10 seconds. I am more motivated than ever and even though I know I cannot win anymore, there is still so much fun in being part of all this and improving my times.” Please join us in thanking Ron for all of his commitment to the cubing community and make sure to say hi to him if you see him at a competition!

有幸采访一位WCA官员
Ron van Bruchem!
他既是WCA的创始人之一也是目前WCA董事会的成员。Ron是来自荷兰的一位魔友，他接触魔方已经40年了。“1980年7月，我第一次接触魔方是在我13岁的时候，那时我住院两个月，一位朋友的母亲从前捷克斯洛伐克带来了一个魔方，她说如果我还原这个魔方的话，你就可以出院了（这里我没太明白这位母亲想表达什么…）。那时没有任何关于魔方的书籍和互联网。所以我只能靠我自己的努力去复原魔方。在两周后，我第一次成功复原了魔方。当魔方风靡到荷兰时我是当时那里唯一个可以复原魔方的人，因此每天都有数十个小孩来我家寻求如何还原魔方的方法。这使我感觉成为了当地的名人并且也燃起了我对魔方事业的热情。”

他的第一次的比赛经历是在2003年多伦多世界魔方锦标赛，他经常参加各种全世界的魔方比赛，例如2013蒙古公开赛，2015秘鲁的TCG & Friends公开赛，当然还有他最喜爱的2011曼谷世界魔方锦标赛！“我们有一个美好的团体，它由全世界分享相同爱好的人们所组成。我喜欢周游许多国家并且在每个地方我都看到一种相似的精神：朋友们之间相互帮助并且他们在玩魔方时很开心。我们大体上都是相同的但是却有一些不同点。在魔友之间，虽然我们都是陌生人，但是我们之间都有相同的乐趣与爱好。不管怎样，我特别为我们的团体拥有并持续独特的氛围而感到骄傲。我们的魔方团体发展的如此之快。无论你去参加哪一场比赛，我喜欢观看那些来自其他国家的魔方视频并且欣赏这种独特并且相同的氛围。”

对于魔方的未来，由于他想在新的地方去举办魔方比赛，所以他希望每个人能够在家门口参加魔方比赛并且他也想逐步扩大比赛规模与参赛人数。不仅他想实现WCA的目标，而且也想实现他自己的目标：“在4月20日也是我50岁的时候，我希望成为世界上第一个50岁以上并且在10秒以内还原魔方的人。即使我不再能赢得比赛但是我也会保持积极的态度。在魔方领域，依旧有更多的乐趣去实现我的目标并参加更多的比赛。”请加入我们并感谢Ron为了实现魔方团体的目标而做出的贡献。如果你在魔方比赛中见到他，请对他说：你好Ron！
