Everyone went sliding this weekend!
The 15th National Slide Championship took place this weekend at the Aquaticum Indoor Aquapark, where once again, the most skilled and fastest sliders competed against each other. Competitors came from all over the country to participate in this unique and entertaining sporting event, where both young and old had the chance to test their abilities.
Participants competed in two rounds across a total of eight categories. The age groups included younger and older children, adults, and even mixed family teams, with adults and children competing together. The special charm of the event lies in the fact that even the most serious adults tap into their inner child and showcase the most carefree slides.
“We love the Slide Championship because it’s a time when everyone enjoys themselves without a care, and the whole family can share in the excitement of the competition. It’s not uncommon for participants to compete in both individual and family categories, making the championship a truly shared family experience,” said Zsuzsanna Likker, Sales Manager of Aquaticum.
The competition wasn’t just about participation but also valuable prizes. The podium finishers won Aquaticum Hotel Vouchers, Spa gift certificates, as well as tickets to the Vojtina Puppet Theater in Debrecen, the Déri Museum, Debrecen Drive, the Agora, and the Garden of Lights event. This way, the winners can continue to enjoy even more experiences in Debrecen.
For those who feel inspired to slide, the Aquaticum Indoor Aquapark is open every day of the year, offering a place to relax and practice for the next Slide Championship.
