Quotes:
Tobias Schiegl (World-Champion 1996, 1997):
„Here you can see, that we trained reaction during the summer. This victory is also good for our team cash box, because the prize money flows into it. From this money the whole team will go to a training camp to Lanzarote next year.”
Nina Reithmayer (Junior-World-Champion 2002):
“It must mean anything when I have a better reaction time at the start than Silke Kraushaar-Pielach. Beyond that our victory is good advertisement for the world cup next week in Igls.”
