They finished fourth as a team. In the all-around, Schäfer finished in eighth place.[6] The following month, Schäfer competed at the Ljubljana World Cup. During qualifications, she placed fourteenth on vault, twelfth on floor, and ninth on balance beam and therefore did not advance to any event finals.[7] In May, she competed at her first German National Championships as a senior elite gymnast.
