OPPORTUNITY, INSPIRATION & MOTIVATION
Each year the SSSA organises more than 35 schools snowsports events in Scotland that, in a good year can attract over 2500 primary and secondary pupils to participate. These events offer inclusive opportunities for all abilities of skier and snowboarder to enjoy and engage in fun, individual and team competitions.
Established in 1971, the Scottish Schools Snowsports Association has long been appointed by the Governing Body of Snowsports to support the development of Scottish snowsports. Over the decades it has provided many exciting opportunities to Scottish schools and crowned countless school champions. Many of these have been inspired by their success and enjoyment of schools skiing and gone on to engage in snowsports for life. Some have even gone on to represent their country on the world stage.
