On November 20, 2024, we had the opportunity to present our “Ice Stock World Championship 2025,” sponsored by Stiegl, in the Skyroom of the Styria Media Center in Graz and to outline our goals. The morning went smoothly, allowing us to provide invited representatives, guests, sponsors, and members of the press with a comprehensive overview of the event. We discussed both organizational details and the schedule for the championship in depth.
In attendance were department heads Harald and Anita Wade, Wolfgang Schwinger, and DI (FH) Gerhard Orthaber, as well as BÖE representative Thomas Pompernigg. Our sponsor Stiegl was represented by Thomas Gstaltmaier and Alice De-Souza.

The entire morning was moderated by Maximilian Schuc.
From November 22nd to 24th, the Europe Cup took place in Bruneck, marking a significant event in the calendar of ice stock sports. During these exciting days, we had the opportunity to promote our upcoming World Championship and generate interest for this fantastic event!
