ARMY WINTER SPORTS ASSOCIATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2021
INTRODUCTION
-
The Army Winter Sports Association (AWSA) was founded (as the Army Ski Association) in 1947. Since then it has encouraged generations of Army service personnel to take to the snow and ice. It has been instrumental in organising competitions from novice to the highest levels of proficiency. Many of its members have gone on to represent the Army and their country at the Olympic Winter Games and in other national and international events.
-
The AWSA’s task, as it was in 1947, is to encourage service personnel to participate in Winter Sports; to develop their skills in a chosen discipline; and to test themselves in demanding conditions, thereby fostering self-discipline, fitness, courage and teamwork. Winter Sports contribute directly to military output and fighting spirit, are an essential part of decompression from operations and remain an important element of the moral component.
-
The Association has some 1600 members and a full programme of events. It receives direction from the UK Armed Forces Sports Board (UKAFSB) and the Army Sports Control Board (ASCB).

The season was cancelled in its entirety owing to the COVID Pandemic and therefore only administrative costs were incurred. This was in accord with the Trustees’ plan.

MAJ GEN D CROOK – CHAIRMAN’S REPORT 20/21
-
Seventy-Three years of the Army Winter Sports Association; what an achievement! I suspect that Field Marshal Montgomery and his team will be looking down on us with tremendous pride in all that has been achieved since 1947. From its early days with only 2 sports (Alpine and Nordic), the AWSA has grown to today’s 8 Disciplines and a comprehensive calendar of events. Once again, my thanks go out to everyone over the years, who have helped develop the AWSA into what it is today.
-
2020 was another very positive and successful year for the AWSA. The Management Team continued to work tremendously hard to enable this success and I would like to acknowledge some key personnel: first, Brigadier Joe Fossey, in his second season, who – despite a very busy day job – has worked tirelessly to support the AWSA; and finally, the background team of Lt Col (Retd) Steve Davis (Secretary), Col James Rhodes (PF Manager), who have remained the bedrock of the Association. On behalf of all the athletes, coaches and officials who have benefited from your dedication and hard work, thank you.
-
the 2020/21 season was a very strange season indeed. With the uncertainty of the effects of the COVID Pandemic would have on the season all disciplines planned for success and held their nerve to the very last safe moment. The Army set a Decision Point in October at which point a ‘go/no go’ decision was made. At that point the UK Government still had the UK population in lock down and EU countries had yet to open its boarders to non-member residents and so the the decision was made to cancel all activity for the 2020/21 season.
-
With the lead into the autumn, many of our supporters were unable to provide the levels od financial support for a season that was not to happen, whilst other agree to provide a minimum level of support to help defray some of the suck costs associated with set the events up prior to the cancelation of the season.
-
Army Winter Sports is hugely important to the retention of our officers and soldiers and I am delighted that it continues to flourish, despite the increasing strain on financial budgets. I look forward to seeing athletes, coaches, officials and support staff next season, either on snow or ice, or perhaps even both. Good luck for the new season ahead.
SUMMARY
- It has been an excellent 20/21 season. The AWSA continues to be in very good order and the very best of wishes to everyone.
