Germany's curling future is in familiar hands as Benjamin Kapp is promoted to skip heading into next season, taking over from Marc Muskatewitz with much of the same core intact. Kapp is joined by third Felix Messenzehl, second Johannes Scheuerl, and newly elevated lead Mario Trevisiol -- four players who have grown up together in the sport, dating back to their junior days and a silver medal at the 2023 World Juniors. The group made waves on the international stage with Muskatewitz at the helm, winning the 2024 European Championship -- Germany's first in two decades -- reaching the Grand Slam playoffs three times, and representing their country at the 2026 Milano Cortina Olympics. Now under Kapp's leadership, the squad looks to build on that foundation and continue their rise in the men's game.
