Ski racers from B.C. continue to punch above their weight on the national stage.
A total of 22 athletes from across the province — representing seven BC Alpine clubs — have been named to Canada’s alpine, ski cross and para-alpine national teams, making up an impressive 40 per cent of the national roster.
The announcement by Alpine Canada Alpin in late October confirmed 54 skiers across all disciplines, most of whom will compete on the FIS World Cup circuit this season. Their collective goal is to represent Canada at the 2026 Milano Cortina Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
“I couldn’t be prouder of these athletes and what they represent, not just for their home clubs, but for every young skier in B.C. chasing a dream,” said Johnny Crichton. “Their success speaks to years of commitment, belief, and teamwork from coaches, parents, and the whole ski community. Seeing so many of our skiers wear the maple leaf across different disciplines really shows the strength and diversity of our programs and the passion that runs through ski racing in British Columbia and I feel truly blessed to watch these athletes represent our amazing country, lets gooooo!
