Entry Oberstdorf Shorttrack Summercamp 2022 on full speed now
15-05-2022.
The entry for the Oberstdorf Shorttrack Summercamp is on
full speed now. 125 skaters from 20 clubs out of 6
countries have enterred already.As the Corona measures in most European
countries become easyer the perspective for organizing
the summercamp is also becoming better. For the
Summercamp we follow the rules of the region of
Oberstdorf and the advices of the International Skating
Union and it looks we can hold a normal
program for the summercamp as we were used in the past.
Many new skaters have entered already but we still miss
a number of old friends who attended the summercamp in
the past also. We do hope that it will be possible for
them also to come. The entry will close on friday 1 July 2022.
All the latest information about the summercamp will be
published on this website. |

Summercamp
Tulips in Oberstdorf
15-05-2022. For many
years it is a tradition that the Shorttrack Summercamp
donates every year a 1000 tulip bulbs to the city of
Oberstdorf. Every year an other colour of tulips is
handed out. The municipality of Oberstdorf have them
planted all over the City. Because the tulip bulbs last
for many years every year more and more tulips can be
seen. It is Spring time now and all over the City of
Oberstdorf the tulips are in full flower now. It
is a special thanks message to the people of Oberstdorf for
all what they do for the sport and for the Oberstdorf
Shorttrack Summercamp. |

On Saturday 15 May 2021 Hanny Brand (Netherlands) has
passed away after a long period of unbeatable illness.
Hanny, from a real skating-family, was a
Super-volunteer who dedicated her whole live to the
sport of cycling, Longtrack speed skating and
Shorttrack. Many later famous skaters in both branches
of the speedskating as a young kid have been trained by
her. For many years she also was a jury-member,
time-keeper and the last years Video operator at many
shorttrack competitions among others in the StarClass
series all over Europe. Hanny also was an important
helping hand for many years in the organization of the
Oberstdorf Shorttrack Summercamp where she did all kinds
of jobs during the whole week besides officiating at the
shorttrack competition. Our thoughts go out to her
husband Daan and son and daughter Martijn and Anna. |

Shorttrack club Kristallijn Gent donates
padding
01-08-2020. Shorttrack club
Kristallijn Gent donated their old padding to the
Oberstdorf Shorttrack Summercamp as they have received a
complete new set of padding of international standard
for the Icerink in Gent. Thanks to this support of STKG
the problem of enough padding and the safety in training
and competition of the Oberstdorf Shorttrack Summercamp
is solved. The club, of which many members every
year come to the Oberstdorf Shorttrack Summercamp has a
new boarding padding in Gent now and they decided to
donate the old padding (still in good quality) to the
summercamp. In the week before the summercamp 2020 a
truck with driver from Oberstdorf came to Gent and all
the STKG members where helping to load the van. On
behalf of all participants of the summercamp we would
like to thank STKG for their support. |
