The program of the event in addition to the individual distances were included mass-start, not too long, only 20 laps - participants were tired after 2 days, and the novelty of the season - the team sprint at 3 laps. I never saw it before - breathtaking show! The spectators attracted cultural program - Children's Dance Ensemble and Drummers performances.

Great success at the first Short Track Master Games held in Cicero NY/USA on April 5th...7th !!! 28 women and 53 men competed in an age groups format for a total of 81 competitors that came from Australia, Canada, the Republic of South Africa and the United States of America. The skaters were shared in 5 years classes based on the long track classification format. All skaters competed in 500m, 777m, 1000m and 1500m distances. The last competition for each class on Sunday was a Super Final. Lot of fun for all the skaters that are waiting for the 2nd edition that probably will be held in Canada next year.
