With the racing season ending abruptly, not only have we been busy « social distancing » and staying healthy, we are also getting our Academy program ready for a new year! We will continue to offer Canmore and Calgary based programming (allowing athletes to train while attending University of Calgary if they wish).
NEW THIS YEAR: we are collaborating with Biathlon Alberta Training Centre to offer biathletes the opportunity to pursue their training goals while attending University of Calgary.
Deadline for application: April 10
Here at the Alberta World Cup Headquarters, we are still sad about the cancellation but in the big scheme of things it was the right thing to do. We were about to launch the song commissioned for our event which is featured in our super fun video. A moving song from Leela Gilday - "Giants". In these tough times, internalize the message - it was directed at our athletes but hey, we are all "Giants" - check it out and enjoy the video and music? Thanks to Canmore Folk Music Festival and SOCAN Foundation for making this possible.
Thank you to all the athletes who took part in the filming of this video, you made this fun!
Thank you to the video producer Peter Collins Photography and film and edits by Francois Pelletier Photography.

It is with great sadness that we announce the cancellation of the 2020 COOP FIS CROSS COUNTRY World Cup. From the bottom of our hearts, we would like to thank our fans, volunteers, athletes and officials for their support and understanding. COVID-19 has presented an unprecedented challenge to our event, but we will be back.
