The Junior World Ski Championships will give the rising stars in Nordic Skiing their first taste of a major international competition.

I can think of no better venue for these young athletes than Oberwiesenthal to start their journey. We have already seen unbelievable infrastructure and crowd support this summer during the Sum- mer Grand Prix, and when the snow starts falling, the excitement in sure to only increase.

I would like to thank everyone involved in the organisation of these Junior World Ski Championships and everyone in te community for their unparalleled support. But most importantly, I want to wish good luck to all the competitors. I hope you make many memories in the upcoming week that will last with you through your entire career.

Dear athletes, trainers, volunteers, judges and officials,

I would like to extend you a very warm welcome to the FIS Nordic Junior & U23 Cross-Country World Ski Championships from the 28th of Febru- ary to the 8th of March 2O2O in my home town of Oberwiesenthal. We are delighted to be your host, and I hope that – alongside the competi- tion – you will have a wonderful time here in Oberwiesenthal.

The Junior World Ski Championships in Schonach in 1981 and in Mur- nau in 1982 were the highlight of my years as a junior competitor. Just being here is not always everything. To those of you competing: I hope that you will meet the goals that you set for yourself. I myself know that it doesn’t always work out that way: 16th and 13th place weren’t the top spots I had imagined! But the success of an athlete’s career is not al- ways decided at the junior level – so if not all your dreams come true, stay cool …

I wish all participants fair competition, free from injury, during your time here in Oberwiesenthal. On top of that, I hope you will have a great time outside of the event itself.

As we say here, „Glück auf“ and “Ski heil!” – safe skiing! Jens Weissflog
