Each summer, Biathlon Canada runs a series of competitions in Canmore that is useful in tracking the progress athletes make over the summer called “Testival“. Since 2020, athletes around the country have been invited to conduct some of the competitions in their home training environments, and to send in their results as part of a nation-wide “Virtual Testival“.

The virtual testival consisted of:

Precision shooting competition
National Team Shooting Competition
3000m Track Time Trial

This summer, Telemark’s Biathlon crew had some great results to demonstrate their hard work so far this summer! Two athletes from Telemark were able to podium in the nation wide competition, and there were multiple personal best performances! You can track our club shooting performances here: Telemark Biathlon Shooting Records

Congratulations everyone!

Jasmine placed first in the Junior B/G 200pt Precision shooting competition!

Tyler placed 2nd in Senior B/G the 3000m time trial!

We had planned to recognize all of the amazing Team Telemark coaches and volunteer helpers at the Telemark Volunteer recognition event in June, however we decided top postpone this event until the fall.

In the meantime, we wanted to send a quick note to recognize and thank all of the coaches, parents and other members of the Telemark community for contributing to a wonderful season.

We are fortunate to have a community of dedicated, passionate and talented people that help to create a place where young athletes can not only learn to ski fast and shoot clean, but also to become good friends, teammates and citizens.
