Wittichenauer Pascal Boden becomes German U23 champion in the triple jump!

A shining star in the sports sky comes from Wittichenau: Pascal Boden secured the title of German U23 champion in the triple jump with an impressive distance of 15.82 meters. An exciting moment for the young athlete, who not only marks his hometown, but also his training facility Dresden SC, comes into focus.

The competition, in which Pascal set his personal best, followed a turbulent appearance at the European Team Championships in Madrid. There, Boden faced some difficulties and dealt with a lot of frustration. It was all the more pleasing that he was able to exploit his full potential at the German U23 Championships. Coach Claudia Marx was extremely satisfied with her protégé's performance and confirmed that he had made good progress despite the challenges.

Challenges and next goals

But there is still something to do: he is only eight centimeters short of the U23 European Championship standard. This is doable, but still requires hard training and focus. Pascal is already on the right track - with the tailwind of the championship and the support of his coach and the team, he will give everything to achieve this goal.

Pascal Boden's success is not the only shining moment of these championships. Bodhi Josiger from the U16 also showed his talent and won the title in the high jump with an excellent performance of 1.83 meters. This is four centimeters more than his previous best and shows that there is also a lot of potential in the youth sector.

Strong performances from Bautzen

Not to be forgotten are the other remarkable achievements of the athletes, such as Ivo Ziebold, who won the B final over 100 m, and Valentin Röhrig, who achieved a new personal best in the 3,000 m obstacle and took 5th place in a strong field of participants. These are all signs that the young athletics talent in Saxony can make a strong impression.

The milestones that the athletes have set give reason to be happy and give hope for an exciting sporting future. It remains to be seen how things will develop, but one thing is certain: Wittichenau and Dresdner SC have reason to be confident and proud of their athletes!
