U18: Dominant to the end
The U18 team also secured the championship title with a flawless performance. After beating Budapest Jegkorong Akademia 4:1 and 4:2 in the semi-finals, the team faced the Nordic Hockey Academy in the final. The coaching duo of Manuel Latusa - club legend of EC Red Bull Salzburg - and Klaus Romera led the team to a convincing sweep:
Game 1 | 18.03.2025 | U18 Red Bull Ice Hockey Academy vs. Nordic Hockey Academy 5:0
Game 2 | 19.03.2025 | U18 Red Bull Ice Hockey Academy vs. Nordic Hockey Academy 3:2
Game 3 | 22.03.2025 | Nordic Hockey Academy vs. U18 Red Bull Ice Hockey Academy 0:6
Latusa was not on the sidelines throughout the basic round, as he was allowed to help out on the Red Bull Munich bench in the DEL in the meantime. This makes the team's performance all the more remarkable, as it remained united and played at a consistently high level even in his absence.
