Before the four participating teams took to the ice for the first time on Friday (August 22), the invitational tournament kicked off on Thursday (August 21) with a welcome event at Kaprun Castle. In a relaxed atmosphere, our Red Bulls met the participating teams from EC Red Bull Salzburg, Rögle BK, and EV Zug.
