I HAVE UPLOADED THE APPLICATION, BUT HAVEN’T RECEIVED AN ANSWER YET. WHAT CAN I DO?
Firstly, thank you for your application. The evaluation can take some time, but first you could take a look at question number 2 and see, if you have a high priority for the upcoming season.
WHAT LANGUAGES ARE NECESSARY?
Fluent German and/or English, not only for the sport, but also for the school education.

WHAT KIND OF SCHOOL PROGRAMS DO YOU OFFER?
For German speakers we work closely together with the SSM/Nachwuchsleistungssport-Model Salzburg and have educational agreements with our partner schools Christian-Doppler-Gymnasium & Sport-HAS Salzburg. Alternatively, we offer E-Learning programs for our internationals.
REGARDING PRACTICE AND SCHOOL – WHAT DOES A TYPICAL DAY LOOK LIKE?
We can’t give you a general answer to this question. The coordination between sports and school is closely and perfectly coordinated for the student’s needs.
WHAT ARE THE COSTS FOR A SPOT AT THE ACADEMY?
The costs depend on multiple factors and cannot be named at this application stage. If the applicant is invited for a Try-Out, the topic ‘costs & financing’ will be part of the interview.
WHAT DOES THE TRY-OUT LOOK LIKE?
We start with a guided tour to every corner of the Academy. During the Try-Out period, there will be a few on-ice practices as well as some off-ice practices. Additionally, we have a physio therapeutic screening, an interview with the educational management and an interview with our sports management.
