SWISS-SKI TEAM GUIDE 1
swiss-ski team guide 1 2 swiss-ski team guide editorial Im neuen Kleid! [] Liebe Schneesportfreunde, es freut mich, dass Sie den aktuellen SwissSki Team Guide in den Händen halten! Die diesjährige Fassung präsentiert sich in einem gänzlich neuen Kleid. Die Umgestaltung des traditionellen Werkes gründet auf dem Gedanken, Ihnen ein zuverlässiges und handliches Nachschlagewerk bieten zu wollen, das Sie durch den ereignisreichen Winter begleiten wird. Deshalb ist das Format des Swiss-Ski Team Guides kleiner und handlicher, die Materialien sind hochwertig und das Layout modern und dynamisch. Nebst den Informationen zu allen Athletinnen, Athleten und deren Betreuerstäben finden Sie im diesjährigen Swiss-Ski Team Guide die Weltcupkalender sämtlicher acht Sportarten, die unter dem Dach des Skiverbandes untergebracht sind. Komplettiert wird das Nachschlagewerk zur Wintersaison 2008/2009 durch die grundlegenden Informationen zum Verband und den verschiedenen Breitensportanlässen. Höhepunkte der Saison 2008/09 werden nebst den Wettkämpfen in der Schweiz sicherlich die fünf Weltmeisterschaften sein. Die alpinen Titelkämpfe anfangs Februar in Val d’Isère sind in einer Tagesreise aus der Schweiz zu erreichen, so dass die Athletinnen und Athleten sicherlich auf die Unterstützung vieler Schweizer Fans vor Ort zählen dürfen. Während Snowboarder und Biathleten für ihre Weltmeisterschaften nach Korea reisen, kämpfen die Freestyler im ebenfalls fernen Japan um Medaillen. Die nordischen Athletinnen und Athleten bleiben mit Liberec (Tschechien) zumindest in Europa. Wo Sie auch immer unseren Athletinnen und Athleten die Daumen drücken, wünschen wir Ihnen dabei viel Spass und Spannung. Und sollten sie in einer Sportart selber das Wettkampffieber packen, schauen Sie sich das vielfältige Breitensport-Angebot für die ganze Familie auf unserer Homepage www.swiss-ski.ch an. Wir freuen uns auf spannende und erfolgreiche Wettkämpfe in der Saison 2008/09 und hoffen, dass Sie unsere Teams am einen oder anderen Anlass lautstark unterstützen! Hansruedi Laich Direktor Swiss-Ski swiss-ski team guide 3 4 swiss-ski team guide éditorial Découvrez sa nouvelle formule! [] Chers amis des sports de neige, je suis ravi que vous puissiez tenir dans vos mains la dernière édition du Swiss-Ski Team Guide ! La version de cette année paraît dans une toute nouvelle formule. L’idée de la réorganisation de cet ouvrage traditionnel était de vous offrir un ouvrage de référence fiable et pratique qui vous accompagnera tout au long d’un hiver riche en événements. C’est pourquoi le format du Swiss-Ski Team Guide est désormais plus petit et plus pratique, les fournitures de qualité et la mise en page moderne et dynamique. A côté des informations sur les athlètes et leur encadrement, vous trouverez dans la nouvelle édition du Swiss-Ski Team Guide le calendrier de la Coupe du monde des huit disciplines organisées sous l’égide de SwissSki. L’ouvrage de référence sur la saison d’hiver 2008/2009 est complété par des informations essentielles sur la fédération et sur les différentes manifestations de sport de loisirs. Outre les compétitions qui se tiendront en Suisse, les cinq Championnats du monde feront certainement partie des temps forts de la saison 2008/2009. On compte sur le soutien généreux des supporters Suisses lors des courses au titre en ski alpin prévues au début du mois de février à Val d’Isère. Tandis que les snowboardeurs et les biathlètes se rendront en Corée pour leurs Championnats du monde, les athlètes du freestyle se rendront tout aussi loin, au Japon, afin de remporter des médailles. Toutefois, seuls les athlètes de ski nordique resteront en Europe, plus exactement à Liberec (Tchéquie). Quel que soit l’endroit où vous encouragerez nos athlètes, nous vous souhaitons beaucoup de plaisir et d’amusement. Et si vous deviez être pris par la fièvre des compétitions dans l’une de ces disciplines, consultez notre offre variée de prestations en sport de loisirs pour toute la famille sur notre page d’accueil www.swiss-ski.ch. Nous nous réjouissons de vivre des compétitions passionnantes lors de la saison 2008/2009 et espérons que vous encouragerez chaleureusement nos équipes lors de l’une ou l’autre manifestation.
