ISU Junior World Cup – speed skating championship

The world's best junior speed skaters come to the Ritten again.
On 2 and 3 December 2023, the world's fastest open-air rink in the Ritten Arena will once again be the venue for a major speed skating event.
After 2 years of Corona-related cancellations, the International Speed Skating Federation awarded the organising committee the contract in April 2023. The Junior World Cup is the second of the four stages of the Junior World Cups.
World Cups have already been successfully held in 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015 and 2017.

Up to 250 young talents from 21 nations are expected on the Ritten to compete for the desired medals and World Cup points on Saturday and Sunday.
The organising committee is particularly pleased about the participation of 2 speed skaters from Ritten.
