Cool to see Bree Schaaf coach everyone and their mother as long as their from a small nation :p (I know, that's the job as development coach)

 

Too bad she doesn't have a separate jacket for Sweden, Brazil etc :d

Who knows, maybe there was behind the scenes stuff going on that we don't know about but made her want to get away, no idea. And yeah, she could be the best of all Germans, so I don't think her move to the Czechs was very much based on not being able to make the German team (for example in the previous two teams she was quite clearly the third German behind Hermann and Lölling, Griebel only got a chance when Fernstädt didn't start and then was not very impressive).

 

Now I'm curious about something which I can't really find much about: Fernstädt was born in CZE, but when did she/her family go to Germany, any idea?

Cant find anything about that, only the following things:

- Her mother is from the Czech Republic and her father is from Germany

- She started as a gymnast, but when her family moved to Berchtesgaden in 2011 (from Heusenstamm, another german city) there was no good gymnastics club around so she started with skeleton. Apparently she was a gymnast for 8 years, but i couldnt find out whether she was for 8 years in the same club. 

- In 2018 she moved back to the Czech Republic and is studying in Prague

I didn't say it's strange ;) 

 

She moved to Germany when she was 1 year old. First she was gymnastic than started to train skeleton.

Where did you find that? Couldnt find any german source ... :mumble:

    • I still shocks, that a country of 4-5 million inhabitants? can be a powerhouse in almost every winter sport + handball, football (most recently with Haaland) and athletics: Ingebrigtsen, Warholm, etc. With such a small population, they can't be missing out on any major talent, surely? This must be the best training system in the world...
    • FIFA announced the stadium and time for each match   for  Iran, it will be 2 matches in LA (and not just 1) and 1 in Seattle and luckily we avoided playing in Canada. absolutely nothing against the country, but there are just too many douchebag Iranian groups in Vancouver trying to mix everything with their stupid politics. it's better to stay away from them.   that can happen in US too but less likely. playing in LA is more like playing at home, at least I hope so. 2022 Qatar was a disaster from our point of view, hopefully this one remains only about football.

    • I don't think he'll mind too much
    • But his time isn`t valid at track record.
    • Vladimir Semirunniy dropped a 12:28 in the 10000m B division, which qualifies him for the Olympics as the fastest time this season (with the big asterisk that it was done in a quad start). Must be a real relief for the Polish team given he isn't looking likely to qualify for the 10000m (or the 5000m) by ranking.   Really problematic that they rank pair start and quad start times together, but whatever.   Also, the Wikipedia page for qualification is updated through the second day.
