German Championships Junior II B Latin
Suspense was held until the end of the German Championships Junior II B Latin at Vellmar-Frommershausen (organized by Rot-Weiß-Klub Kassel): As a pilot project in the youth section, for the first time the final round was not conducted open, enabling parents and fans to totally focus on supporting their favorites at best. The couples rewarded them with their excellent performance.
Two couples from Berlin, three from Hesse and one couple from
North Rhine-Westphalia had a reason to raise their hopes for the
title. Rank four to six were then also distributed amongst the
Hessians, Maxim Sosunof/Evgeniya Kazarina from Cologne won bronze.
This made it certain that the two couples from Berlin will go to
Kyiv for the IDSF World Junior II on March 8. Ilja Schäfer/
Christina Zelt won silver. The gold medal and the titel went to
Harry Bober/ Romy Kuhlmann, the only couple in the finals who had
danced from the preliminaries onwards. (Photo: Estler).
