Kilian and his brother Magnus, both 6 years old, were able to meet their role models on the ice at the CheckerBande's annual kick-off and get their autographs and a few tips. Afterwards, they were also able to ask Maximilian Kastner and Mathias Niederberger their questions at the children's press conference (children's press conference). A big wish came true for Christian, 11, in January: he was allowed to ride on the Red Bulls team bus to his first tournament on Hockey Day.
In November, the members of the CheckerBande had the opportunity to get an idea of the Red Bulls' new home. In the SAP Garden Experience Center, they were first given some information and then watched a film to test out the stadium seats. Raphael, 11 years old: "Wow, what the Experience Center has to offer and what a great stadium we're getting. It was very interesting and I'm really looking forward to it."
For the coming season, our mascot Mike is of course planning lots of great moments for the CheckerBande again. If you are not yet 14 years old, sign up right here: CheckerBande.
