Cancellation of remaining Freestyle Ski and Freeski events in Switzerland
Mar 13, 2020·Ski Cross
Due to the continued outbreak and spread of the Novel Coronavirus, and restrictions on public gatherings in Switzerland, along with the increased travel restrictions announced, the upcoming FIS World Cup Freestyle Ski and Freeski events in Switzerland have been cancelled.
These include:
FIS Ski Cross World Cup Finals in Veysonnaz (SUI), 14th March
FIS Slopestyle World Cup finals in Silvaplana (SUI), 21-22 March
The health and welfare of the athletes and all other participants, as well as the general public are in the forefront and the priority of all stakeholders of FIS competitions.
The instructions and decisions of the National and Regional Governments and their Health Authorities are decisive in any recommendation regarding public gatherings that impact FIS competitions.
All two impacted events were the scheduled Finals in the Freestyle Ski and Snowboard events and will not be replaced this season. As the World Cup slopestyle competition in Silvaplan was the last scheduled FIS World Cup across all Olympic disciplines, this marks the official end to the FIS World Cup season 2019-2020.
Stay tuned for full recaps of the Audi FIS Ski Cross World Cup and FIS Freeski slopestyle 2019/20 World Cup seasons, coming up soon.
