The first national minigolf event 2012 in Germany was held on the Eternit course in Heilbronn on the 13th and 14th of April. The Youth German Federal States Cup (JLP in German) is a junior team competition of the federal states of Germany. Every minigolf association of a German federal state (Bundesland) can form a team of 5 or 6 juniors (male or female). If at least one female junior plays for the team, the worst score of each team round is cut. So only the best 5 scores per round count for the team. There were 10 rounds to go.
Most of the time Northrhine-Westfalia was leading, but in the last round Bremen/Lower-Saxony beat them by just one shot. Bavaria came third 20 shots further behind.
Heilbronn seems to be a good Eternit course as there were some extraordinary good scores. The best players had an average below 21 in 10 rounds, and there were several "blue" rounds (scores below 20).
Manuel Szablikowski from Mainz (Rhineland-Palatinate) won the male kids category with a total of 218. Pascal Fischbeck from Arendsee (Saxony-Anhalt) came second with a total of 223, followed by Tristan Kleiner from Celle (Lower Saxony) with 231.
The winner of the female kids category was Maike Haupt from Herten (Northrhine-Westfalia) with a total of 227. Patricia Fischbeck from Arendsee (Saxony-Anhalt) reached a second place with 250, followed by Sarah Schumacher from Tuttlingen (Baden) with 256.
Vanessa Peuker from Dormagen-Brechten won the female juniors category with a total of 213, followed by Annika Dellmann from Neheim (both Northrhine-Westfalia) with 221. Isabell Raschke from Diepholz (Lower Saxony) came third with 229.
Marcel Waleska from Göttingen (Lower Saxony) and Sebastian Piekorz from Niederstetten (Württemberg) finished the tournament with the same total score - 208. So the winner of the male juniors category had to be decided in a play-off, won by Marcel Waleska, who even played an 18 in the last round. Robin Hettrich from Dormagen-Brechten (Northrhine-Westfalia) came third with 219.
The local player Jan van Vught was proud to end up on a 9th place with a total of 223. He was interviewed and filmed by a TV team of SWR 3. Please follow the link below.
