The final placement games will take place on April XNUMX, XNUMX.

Tommy Kettner, Women's Federal Young Talent Trainer: “We achieved a good fourth place in Budapest last year. Some of our players have already completed courses with the U18s last season, so we can take young players with us who will now take on responsibility with the U16s. Due to the mode, there will be four intensive game days for the girls. Due to the line-up, the tournament is once again considered a highlight at the end of the season. After a year of experience in this new U16 age group, we can definitely draw a positive conclusion and say that the decision was also the right one with regard to the U18s. “
