LRNSC at the Snow Show

LRNSC together with GoXCski, RAF Nordic & Army Nordic successfully promoted nordic skiing at the recent snow show in Birmingham.  Pauline, Megan, Glennis, Andy & Adam did a great job of promoting the Club and our sport.  It was great to meet members in person, like long-standing member Allan Carter, whilst others like Andrew Kenyon got to meet up with their old mates, in his case Eddie the Eagle!  Check out the gallery.

LRNSC supports Britain’s World class cross country skiers!

In July this year UK Sport made the devastating announcement that our Cross-country ski team was ‘deemed not to be investible for World Class Programme funding’. In other words our elite GB Nordic team was to lose its vital funding at a time when the athletes have been delivering some of Britain’s greatest ever results on the snow. You can read GB Snowsport’s statement here.
