Our Biathlon Time Trial will include categories that use our new Eco Aims laser biathlon units. The ecoaims don’t use any projectiles, which means there is no experience necessary to use the units. This is a perfect opportunity for anyone to give biathlon a shot. If interested, feel free to register for the biathlon TT, or reach out to Coach Chris with any questions you might have!

Registration Deadline is Dec 18

Here are the details for the FRIST BC Cup 1 of the season and North American Cup 2 biathlon race in Vernon on Dec 14-15. This is a combined BC Cup and North American Cup, which means it will be an exciting race with athletes from out of province joining the older categories!

This is a local biathlon race with race categories from U11 to Masters, so it would be good to have a large contingent from Telemark (Biathlon Bears all through the Masters) out for the event!
