The British Ski Academy

NEW FOR 2025

The British Ski Academy is delighted to announce that the world class Swiss ski resort of Verbier will be the venue for our British national seedpoint ski races.

OVERVIEW

Since 1996 the BSA has provided the expertise and encouragement necessary for young British ski racers to develop their skills, attitudes and conditioning while maintaining their academic grades.

British World Cup stars Dave Ryding, Laurie Taylor, Charlie Guest, Alex Tilley & Charlie Raposo collectively spent 25 seasons with the BSA. Alex and the Charlies have now hung up their boots after stellar careers.

Best wishes to Dave and Laurie on a spectacular 2024/25 winter season. Laurie will be looking to build on his breakthrough top ten result in Aspen in March 2024. And Dave, for the first time in his career, will be starting in the top group. Fingers crossed for #1 in Levi on 17 November!

Watch out for the next generation of BSA members and former trainees preparing for World and Europa Cup seasons. Reece Bell (24), slalom ranking 62 Molly Butler (18), slalom ranking 265 Luca Carrick-Smith (19), slalom ranking 202 Freddy Carrick-Smith (17), best U18 at World Juniors, slalom ranking 191, GS 210 Zak Carrick-Smith (17), double Youth Olympic champion, slalom ranking 173

Worth noting that our Alpine ski teams receive zero public funding and are entirely reliant on donations and personal sponsorship. Let's keep them on the road!
