Sean McAnuff Lines Up For Dresden World Cup

This weekend Sean McAnuff is back racing at the ISU World Cup Short Track Speeding Skating in Dresden, Germany (3-5 February).

Following his successful outing at last month’s European Championships, the Irish skater races first in the qualifying rounds which will be held on Friday through to the subsequent rounds on Saturday and Sunday. This will be the first time he competes on the World Cup circuit since November 2021.

“Dresden is one of my favourite cities to race in,” McAnuff said. “I have so many great memories of previous competitions here and the venue is very large and high quality! I have already spent lots of time catching up with athletes from other countries and am excited to meet new faces and continue encouraging them over race weekend.

“This weekend I will compete in the 500 and 1000 metre distances and have the goal of skating new personal best times in these distances while focusing on finishing well in the rankings.”
