FIS ALPINE CHILDREN RACES 2016 U 14 AND U 16 EUROPE
SCARA PINOCCHIO POKAL LOKA TOPOLINO
Colette CORNU July 27th 2016
Upon the request of Pierre Bornat and the French Ski Federation, I have been doing since 2013 a study on the major « children » ski races in Europe. These races are reserved for U 14 and U 16 girls and boys. The races studied are the following :
√ 36th Scara Val d’isère FRA April 5th till 8th 2016 – SG and SL √ 34th Pinocchio Abetone ITA April 7th till 9th 2016 – GS U14 and SL U 16 √ 41st Pokal Loka SLO Kranjska Gora (replacing Stari) February 13th and 14th 2016 – 2 SL U 14 and U 16
√ 55th Topolino ITA March 4th and 5th 2016 - GS and SL
These U 14 and U 16 races have been for quite many years the breeding grounds for tomorrow’s alpine ski champions, girls and boys who, thanks to these competitions, are given the opportunity to compete with the best skiers of their category. These races constitute in fact for all the young racers of continental Europe a real European « children » championship for U 14 and U 16 (USA and Canada have a very low attendance due to their remoteness and to a minor extent Scandinavian countries).

INTERNATIONAL FIS CHILDREN RACES U 14 AND U 16 IN 2016
A. OVERALL VIEW OF THE CHILDREN RACES IN 2016
The four races have a very long history. The Topolino is in its 55th edition, Pokal Loka in its 41st, Scara in its 36th and Pinocchio in its 34th.
They take place between mid february and the beginning of April and give all these youngsters the opportunity to measure themselves with the best skiers in their category. Many countries are participating, either with official
national teams or with regional or committee or club groups, as it is the case for Switzerland and Italy. Between 30 and 39 nations compete (the Topolino being ahead with 39 nations).

It is very useful to look at the number of participants in 2016 on the four FIS races (total of all the participants on each result sheet). The results are the following (the number of DSQ and ABD has been enclosed when the figure is very importabt due this winter to difficult snow conditiopns and the state of the piste) :

In 2016 the big winners:
U 14 GIRLS √ Anja OPLOTNIK (SLO) climbed on four podiums including two gold in SL at Scara and Pokal Loka. √ Dzenifera GERMANE (LAT), born in 2003, brings to Latvia its first podiums : two gold on the Italian races as well as a 4th and 5th place. Dzenifera also won the SL1 and came in second on the SL2 of Zagreb
√ Vanina GUERILLOT (POR) who this year is racing for Portugal achieved five podiums including three 2nd
places at the Scara and Pokal Loka SLs and in GS at the Topolino. √ Salomé DESMALLES from Serre Chevalier is the only French girl who managed to to be on a podium, being 3rd at the Scara SG and 4th at the Topolino SL. U 14 BOYS
√ Jaakko TAPANAINEN (FIN) claims two victories at the Topolino, the only even he participated in. √ Max PAGET from Magland did bring back two 2nd places in SL at Scara and Pokal Loka.

U 16 FILLES
√ Neja DVORNIK (SLO), born in 2001, is the overall top winner with three victories in SL and GS at Topolino, SL1 at Pokal Loka and a second place in SL2 at Pokal Loka. She only raced this year Topolino and Pokal
Loka. This young Slovenian girl can already be noted as one of the top performers since the start of « children » FIS alpine ski races. She has a remarkable achievement all through her participation in « children » races. In 2015, in her second year of U 14, Neja did win 6 podiums among which five wins at the Scara, Topolino and Pokal Loka. In 2014, in her first year of U 14, Neja did not run Scara but was 11th in GS at Pinocchio, third in SL and fifth in GS at Topolino, won the SL and came in 8th in GS at Pokal Loka. Quite an amazing performance that she will surely want to renew next year for her last « children » participation.
√ Ida STIMAC (CRO) is this year the only Croatian performer by winning the Pokal Loka SL2 plus two other podiums on the Italian races. She also won the SL1 in Zagreb. In her first U 16 year in 2015, she had already made one podium. √ Barbora ZIKOVA (CZE) : one must also underline the performance of this young Czech girl born in 2001
who made three podiums : she won the Scara SG and came in second at the Topolino GS and second at the Pokal
Loka SL2. Barbora is not a newcomer in « children » races as in 2015 she had already won the Scara SG and climbed on three podiums in the other races. √ Marie LAMURE of Courchevel, born in 2001, is the only U 16 French girl who secures a podium. She came in third at the Pokal Loka SL2 and fifth at the Pokal Loka SL1. U 16 BOYS
√ Borut BOZIC (SLO) secures three podiums among which the victory at the Pinocchio SL. A super performance, a little unusual for Slovenian boys. √ Giovanni FRANZONI (ITA) won the Pinocchio GS and finished 2nd in the SL. He is born in 2001.
√ Francesco COLOMBI (ITA) won the Topolino SL and came in second at the Pinocchio GS.
√ Augustin BIANCHINI from Méribel is the best U 16 French performer by winning the Pokal Loka SL1 and finishing second in the SL2. In 2015, he had already made two podiums in his first year at the Scara. One must also point out the performance of the young Croatian boy, Luka Tiriel ABRAMOVIC who won six podiums in 2015 including three victories in U 14. In 2016, in his first year of U 16, he finished all the races in
which he competed. He came in seventh at the Pokal Loka SL1 and 8th at the SL2, fifth at the Topolino SL and 27th at the GS, sixth at the Pinocchio SL and 20th of the GS. He did not race Scara this year. He will be someone to watch next year.
E. PODIUMS 2016 PER NATION IN THE INTERNATIONAL FIS CHILDREN RACES U 14 AND U 16
As there are no FIS points for « children », we have to look at the performance of every nation by totalling all
their performances in the races in which they participated. Simple arithmetics : three points for the winner, two points for second and one point for third place.

The podium concentration by nation is as high as in 2015 : only 13 nations have obtained at least one podium (same figure as in 2015). This represents only 25 % of the total of nations (52 in 2016).
6
√ 5 nations, in decreasing order SLO, ITA, FRA, AUT, SUI account for 77 % of the podiums and 77 % of the victories. In 2015, the order was the following : ITA, SLO, CRO, FRA, AUT.
√ SLO did participate in all four events and is the overall winner with 18 podiums including 9 wins (29 % of the
victories). √ ITA also participated in the four events. But it lost its leadership obtained in 2015 to SLO. √ FRA with three participations is on the podium in third position slightly ahead of AUT. √ POR with the four podiums of Vanina Guérillot in U 14 is a newcomer and LAT also with the two victories at
Topolino and Pinocchio by Dzenifera Germane, in her first year of U 14. √ CRO is the big loser. It ranked second in 2015 with 18 podiums but goes down to ninth place in 2016. We have to look a little bit closer at the performances of the first four countries.
N° 1 SLOVENIA : this country is the girls top winner with 27 % of the podiums and 44 % of the victories. In 2016, Slovenia, out of the 16 U 14 and U 16 girls races, was on the podium 13 times (in U 14, 7 podiums including 3 wins and, in U 16, 6 podiums including 4 wins). These figures clearly show the Slovenian mastership in the girls races. As usual for this nation, the performances are more on the SL side (9 podiums – a double at the Pokal Loka SL1, but no podium at the Pinocchio SL U 16). This year, the young Slovenian girl, Neja Dvornik, won the Topolino U 16 GS (after having won the SL). The boys are starting to show up : Bozic Borut won the Pinocchio U 16 SL and finishes second in the Topolino SL. In 2015, Slovenia was again the big winner in the girls
U 14 but did not do as well on the U 16.
N° 2 ITALY : Italy is no longer the top winner (in 2015, this nation had won 18 % of the podiums and was well ahead of Croatia and Slovenia. On the win side, Italy is largely surpassed by Slovenia. Italy this year only achieved podiums on the Italian races (none at Scara and none at Pokal Loka). 14 of the Italian 19 podiums are obtained at Pinocchio (including four wins). Four out of the five wins are obtained by U 16 boys and girls.
N° 3 FRANCE : France moves up this year to third place (fourth in 2015), without having raced Pinocchio. As
in 2015, France has obtained 14 podiums : 7 or girls and 7 for boys, 6 for U 16 and 8 for U 14. The alarming situation of 2015 on the girls side has disappeared.
N° 4 AUSTRIA : this nation improves its ranking, climbing to fourth place, just behind France. 92 % of the Austrian podiums are obtained at Scara (7 podiums) and at Pokal Loka (5 podiums). Out of their 13 podiums, 8 are obtained by boys, 5 by girls, 8 by U 16 and 5 by U 14. In 2015, Austria did finish 5th with 7 podiums but no win.
Missing CROATIA : Croatia in 2015, on « children » races, was the second country behind Italy and ahead of
Slovenia. This nation had obtained 18 podiums including 8 wins with the impressive performance of three young Croatians : Luka Tiriel ABRAMOVIC (in U 16 1st year in 2016), Lana ZBASNIK and Sam KOLEGA. The last two have left the « children » category. In 2016, Croatia only obtained three podiums including one win at the Pokal

At Scara, Austria and France share 74 % of the podiums. Pinocchio goes to Italy (70 % of the podiums). For
Topolino, three nations, Slovenia, Italy and Switzerland gather 88 % of the podiums. France did not do as
well at Topolino with only two podiums (including one win). All the Pokal Loka podiums are shared among Slovenia, Austria and France. The 22 gold medals of the five top nations were obtained as such : • 11 by girls * 5 for the U 14 * 6 for the U 16
• 11 by boys * 4 only for the U 14 * 7 for the U 16 • in total 13 by U 16 et 9 by U 14 One can also point out that two triple success were done in 2016 : France in SL U 14 girls at Scara and Italy in GS U 16 boys at Pinocchio.
c. performances for « children » in their first year (U 16 born in 2001 ou U 14 born in 2003) In 2016, it is interesting to look into the remarkable performances done by « children » in the first year of their category, in U 14 and U 16. This is clearly a new phenomenon, especially for girls and above all for U 16.

The figures speak for themselves. Out of a total of 121 possible podiums in 2016, 19 podiums including eight gold went to « first year» children (16 % of the total podiums). They go to : 10 for Pinocchio, 5 to Topolino, 3 to Pokal Loka et only 1 at Scara. These young racers achieved 8 wins, 5 second places and 6 third places.
• U 14 : four podiums, all obtained by girls including two wins in slalom by Latvia (Dzenifera Germane) • U 16 : fifteen podiums (31 % of the U 16 podiums) : twelve for girls and three for boys.
• 16 podiums for girls and 3 for boys. 11 podiums were obtained in SL et 8 in SG/GS • Italiy 6 podiums, Slovenia 5 podiums, SUI, LAT and CZE 2 podiums, GER and FRA (Marie LAMURE in SL2 U 16 at Pokal Loka) one podium
• at the Pinocchio races, out of the 24 possible podiums, 10 were won by « first year » racers d. comparison between the FIS Overall Nation Cup 2015/2016 and FIS « children » races It is useful to compare the FIS Overall Nation Cup M+W ranking for the 2015/2016 season and FIS « children » races (to make it simpler, we will use the number of podiums with priority for first places). It is not surprising to
see that Slovenia’s performance is well head of its WC nation ranking. « Children » races are for this country their « unofficial » training center. Austria, Italy, France, Switzerland and Germany more or less hold their position. USA, CAN, NOR, SWE are absent due probably to their remoteness milewise.
