The German figure skating championships will not take place in Hamburg on December 19th and 20th. This was announced by the German Ice Skating Union after a "constructive exchange with the Hamburg Ice and Roller Sports Association". The organization of the title fights is "not feasible" under the current conditions in the pandemic, it said in a message. According to DEU, the hosting of the championships will be checked at one of the five federal bases. A move to the ice sports center Dortmund would be possible. The "NRW Autumn Trophy 2020" will be held there from Friday to Sunday. The DEU has received approval for the event from the Dortmund health department, the association announced. To make this possible, the comprehensive hygiene concept has been refined again. Federal squad athletes will compete in this competition.
