-
24/25 Financial Overview. The Chair reported that donations had risen steadily following a few turbulent years post COVID as we managed to secure a number of SME companies new to the organisation which bolstered our financial position in time for the season. With the increase in income the Trustees were able to take the decision to enter teams into both the Alpine and Snowboard British Championships held in France. Both resulted in various degrees of success, particularly in the Snowboard where the military competitors made up over a third of the entries and in the Alpine where the women’s team secure two podiums in the Super G. These were the first medals won in over a decade. The season closed with all disciplines completing a full programme of events in the best snow conditions experienced for many years. The detailed Financial Statement is enclosed with this report. At the season close the account realised a surplus £48,203.
UKAFWSA EVENTS
-
In 2024/25 UKAF Winter Sports was able to complete a full season across all disciplines. With snow conditions varying from country to country and resort to resort, all disciplines had to remain flexible to programme changes with the safety of the competitors paramount in all decisions made. Meribel saw some excellent snow conditions, the best in a number of years. Cresta once again saw good conditions on their ‘manmade’ track and the Ice Championships had to change venues late in the year as the Igls, track failed its inspection following some key track renovations. A return to Lillehammer proved successful for the championships and financially beneficial saving the association funds. These championships followed closely after the winter Olympics and therefore all military athletes competing at the Olympics were able to transfer across to compete for the their Services.
-
While facing a backdrop of operations and busy periods at work once again affected some participation, the UKAFWSA managed to complete events with a high standard of competition. Despite such challenges for the snow sports all other events passed without issue and so it was pleasing to be able to report a full and successful season for the UKAFWSA across all disciplines Once again there were many closely fought competitions and congratulations must go to all the competitors, whose skill, determination, and frankly raw courage epitomises the values the UKAFWSA place so highly in our British Servicemen and Women and enables them to throw themselves down ice and snow with little more than a piece of wood, metal or fibreglass strapped on somewhere at frightening speeds. At the end of a hard fought season the Army appeared to victors when counting the total number of trophies being competed for: Army – 6, RAF – 5, RN – 3. Finally, we must commend all members of our Hill Teams, Officials and Sponsors, for all that they do. There drive and commitment ensures we are able to return year on year to deliver the events we witness on an annual basis.
SUMMARY
UKAFWSA Trustees Report 24/25 – 4
