Ski jumping star Lia Böhme: gold medal and Abitur in a year!

in the world of ski jumping is a special year for the young athlete Lia Böhme in 2025. The 19-year-old from Karsdorf, who lives in Klingenthal, recently won the gold medal in the team at the Junior World Championship in Lake Placid, USA, such as Sächsische.de reported. This victory crowns a season that was full of ups and downs for the young athlete.

Lia Böhme, who belongs to the VSC Klingenthal and trains under coach Andre Pschera, has now successfully mastered the Abitur. She plans her departure to Istria and the graduation ball - in the spirit of a youth that is full of dreams and ambitions. Your joy about the performance is reflected in your future plans.

from school to the ski jumps

The time of learning was not always easy for Lia. In the summer of 2023 they plagued knee problems that led to the fact that they had to drop out numerous competitions. But with the support of her family, especially thanks to her father Oliver Böhme, Lia returned through physiotherapy and hard training and soon celebrated victories in the German Cup in Seefeld, Eisenerz and Oberhof. The valuable backing of the father, who was even a talented ski jumper, ensured that Lia never gave up.

The return to the competition was also characterized by Lia's debut at the Two Nights Tour in autumn 2024. At her first appearance in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, she jumped with the start number 1 an impressive 104 meters, but missed the qualification for the World Cup. A small setback, which she never discouraged.

on the future

With her recent successes, Lia Böhme shows a remarkable upward development. Your personal best of 118.5 meters, achieved on November 4, 2023 in Klingenthal, confirms her talent. In the future, she will concentrate on the Inter-Continental Cup, the Sommer Grand Prix and the Two Nights tour.

Since Lia will soon be 20 years old, another step is imminent: she will go to the Bundeswehr, which is an important turning point in her life. However, she won't leave the adventure ski jumping behind, because her career is far from over. The Bergiselschanze in Innsbruck remains your favorite hill, and we will certainly see you again in the upper ranks.

Lia was not alone in the junior category. Other talents were also selected in Lake Placid, part of the German opening at the FIS Nordic Junior World Championships, which will take place in Lake Placid from FIS 16 to 16, 2025. With Kim Amy Duschek, Julina Kreibich and Anna-Fay Scharfenberg, the German team is optimistic, while the juniors are ready to also accept the challenge.

The FIS Junior World Championships promise to become an exciting event, and with a solid team under the direction of the German Ski Association, the next success could already lurk around the corner, as the event details show, which also show at DeutscherskiverBand.de published.

All in all, Lia Böhme is not only on the course on the ski jump, but also got her laurels at school. This is a young athlete who will celebrate many successes in the future!
