CCBC Clubs
The Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025 will be the inaugural hybrid Invictus Games, introducing winter sports for the first time. Five winter sports, including Cross Country Skiing, will be featured in Whistler creating opportunities for all 550 Invictus Games participants to try at least one sport.
In preparation for this event we are conducting an inventory of the sit-ski equipment we currently have in our province.
Does your club own sit-ski equipment? Do you know if any members of your club own sit-ski equipment?
If so, please indicate as best you can the size, model and age of each sit-ski and forward this information to office@crosscountrybc.ca by September 10th, 2023.
Your help is much appreciated.
