When the Baregg Curling Hall in Baden becomes the hotspot for European junior curling from 4 to 7 September 2025, all eyes will be on the girls' teams, but also on the exciting field of participants in the boys' competition. Although the international field for the boys is not quite as broad as for the girls, the quality of the teams promises high-class duels, emotional moments and real curling fireworks. The local team Baden-Lausanne Markstein in particular is raising expectations – and with the reigning junior world champion from Italy, there is a team at the start that is causing a sensation on the scene. In this article, we take a detailed look at the participating teams, highlight the favourites, the local heroes and the international challengers. We also show why a visit to the EJCT Baden 2025 is worthwhile for every curling fan and sports enthusiast.
From 4 to 7 September 2025, the Baregg Curling Hall in Baden will be the meeting place for Europe's junior elite: The European Junior Curling Tour (EJCT) is stopping off in the spa town, and the line-up of girls' teams reads like a who's who of international junior curling. The Baden curlers are really looking forward to it, as they will get to compete against the best – and in front of a home crowd.
The European Junior Curling Tour (EJCT) is set to welcome a brand-new highlight on its calendar: EJCT Baden. Taking place for the very first time in Baden, Switzerland, this event is already making waves – not only for the high-level competition it promises but also for the generous prize money on offer.
Thanks to the incredible support of our valued sponsors and the Curling Club Baden-Regio, EJCT Baden is proud to award a total of CHF 7,000 in prize money – CHF 3,500 for the Boys’ competition and CHF 3,500 for the Girls’ competition. This commitment to rewarding excellence underscores our dedication to promoting junior curling, both in the Canton of Aargau and far beyond Swiss borders.
The Baden-Zug Markstein team won the bronze medal at the Junior A Swiss Championships.
