ISU Short Track Junior World Cup #2 heads to Bormio
The ISU’s 2026/27 short track junior calendar includes World Cup #2 in Bormio, Italy, giving young speed skaters another high-pressure stop on the international circuit.
Bormio is on the short track calendar for the 2026/27 season, with the ISU listing Short Track Junior World Cup #2 there from 12 to 14 November 2026. For junior athletes, that means another important chance to race fast, stay clean in traffic, and bank the kind of experience that tends to matter later.
Why this stop matters
Junior World Cup events are where the next wave of short track skaters starts turning potential into results. Bormio joins the season as one of the key stages in that progression, and for fans it is a reminder that the junior circuit is not just a warm-up act. These races are often tight, tactical, and full of future names worth remembering.

What skaters and fans can expect
Short track rewards nerves as much as power. On a junior World Cup weekend, the racing usually feels like a sprint with a chess match inside it: positioning, pacing, and split-second decisions can decide everything.
For skaters, that makes Bormio a valuable stop for sharpening race craft. For fans, it is exactly the sort of event that can deliver unexpected finishes, smart moves in the pack, and a few hard-earned breakout performances.
Junior short track is where the sport’s future starts to show its edges: speed, skill, and just enough chaos to keep everyone honest.
Keep an eye on the season picture
This Bormio listing fits into a broader ISU junior short track calendar, with multiple international stops giving developing skaters repeated chances to test themselves against deep fields. Even without the full week-by-week drama yet, the Bormio round is already one to mark down for anyone following the junior pathway.
It is also the kind of event that should leave room for strong visuals: a featured image of the rink or venue works well up top, and action shots from the ice can bring the racing intensity to life in supporting spaces.
