      Entry Summercamp closed now
01-07-2023. The entry for the 12th edition of the Oberstdorf Shorttrack Sumemrcamp is closed now. 225 skaters from 42 clubs out of 10 countries have entered for this years edition. With this number of skaters the sumemrcamp is (after 26 years Chamonix and 12 years Oberstdorf) the biggest summercamp ever organized. Because the number of attendents is so big this year the Organizing Committee has a lot of work to do in advance. For this reason we request everybody to fill in the questionnaire forms, which can be found on the page INFO/Entry procedure, as quick as possible and return this by Email to 23-Oberstdorf@shorttrackonline.info.

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.
