What makes ice stock sport special

The Ice Stock Cup in Heide has grown into a beloved winter tradition. Up to 160 teams compete against each other, with each team consisting of at least four people. Participants play wearing regular street shoes, and bringing your own ice stocks is allowed. The entry fee is €50 per team, and registration is handled through City Marketing. In addition to the competitive tournament, a special “fun trophy” adds extra cheer — awarded to the team with the most creative performance.

Our Engel & Völkers team from Heide also takes part every year and traditionally participates in the tournament – with a lot of commitment, team spirit, and good humor. For us, participating is not only a sporting incentive, but also an opportunity to strengthen the local community and experience the special atmosphere of the winter world together.The result is a lively mix of sporting ambition and cheerful entertainment that inspires spectators and participants alike.
