Hard to believe, but last year the children's Four Hills Tournament already celebrated its 20th anniversary! 20 years in which the fascination of ski jumping was brought closer to the children by the commitment of the coaches, clubs, parents and responsible persons - and thus also started some big careers. Like Michael Hayböck, Severin Freund (2000), Gregor Schlierenzauer, Markus Eisenbichler (2001), Stefan Kraft and Andreas Wellinger (2003) - they all took part at the children's Four Hills Tournament and can look back already on considerable careers. We were allowed to accompany the tournament seven years as a main sponsor.

Reason enough for us to take a look back and  resume. "The work with the junior sector the basis for the future. If you look at the well-known former participants of the Children's Four Hills Tournament, you will see that it is worth investing in the next generation properly. I'm proud to have been the main sponsor of the Children's Four Hills Tournament for the past seven years. Seven years, in which a lot of passion, organizational talent and financial resources have flowed from all sides into the tournament. In this way, I would like to thank all organizing associations and employees for the good cooperation, "says Peter Riedel, CEO of Peter Riedel GmbH.

"As a company, however, we have come to a point where we will revise our sponsoring strategies and, in the future, reorientate ourselves. That's why we retire as the main sponsor of the Children's Four Hills Tournament. However, we will continue supporting the younger generation! Even more energy and resources are already flowing into the further development of our inrun track systems in order to achieve one thing: to offer clubs and associations high-quality, but above all, AFFORDABLE solutions for the next generation! Because perfect training infrastructure for the children is, in my opinion, the main point for success in later years.“
