To start the season, the Basic Novice and Advanced Novice categories launched the competition.
rnIn the Basic Novice division, the Bernettes from SC Bern won the competition. On the Advanced Novice side, the Cool Dreams Novice's very clean program allowed them to take first place on the podium. The Starlight Novice, who finished just a few points behind, will have the opportunity to defend themselves in a month at the Swiss Championships in Widnau.
rnIn the Juvenile category, it is also the skaters from the Cool Dreams Juveniles team from Bern who win the competition. In this category, two other teams were in the race; the Starlight Juveniles and Team Pearls who were on the 2nd and 3rd step of the podium.
