This weekend 192 athletes from 19 different cross country ski clubs will descend on Revelstoke for the Teck Midget Provincial Championships.

This event is the biggest event of the year for athletes born 2000 to 2003 and will showcase skiers from as far away as Smithers, Courtenay, and clubs in the American Northwest.

Skiers will compete in a variety of sprits, relays, and time trials, using both classic and skating techniques.

Come out this weekend to the Revelstoke Nordic Ski Club on Highway 23S, and cheer the athletes on!

There will be 20 local skiers taking part with a number of medal contenders in the mix!
