AWSA 50

St Moritz & Pontresina, Switzerland

 

           

 

AWSA 50 was the largest multi-disciplined winter sports event outside the Olympic Winter Games. It celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the Army Winter Sports Association

SportsMark was responsible for 18 months of detailed planning and organisation, which covered every aspect of our Event Management and Media portfolios. Altogether we booked some 8500 bed nights!

Working with our associate companies we were able to raise a considerable amount of capital from sponsors. National and local media coverage both during, and after the event, was impressive and included 2 hours of real-time coverage on BBC 5 Live.

 

 

Over 500 athletes represented 10 different winter sports disciplines. They took part in 40 races, some of which were Inter Service and British National events.

HRH The Duke of Kent, HRH Princess Alexandra, Olympic athletes, Sponsor and Corporate guests, a large press corps and senior Military and Diplomatic personalities were amongst the spectators.
