FIS to host International Ski Congress online due to COVID-19 Thursday, 1 April 2021
The International Ski Federation (FIS) has confirmed the 2021 International Ski Congress will be held online due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
This decision was made to ensure the safety and health of all in attendance, and comes after some countries expressed concerns that an in-person event could prevent them participating fully.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Congress has already been postponed twice and it is now set to be held in early June.
The General Assembly day of the Congress is scheduled to be held online on June 4 with an abbreviated agenda, which will include the election of the FIS President and Council for the term lasting until the election at the 2022 Congress.
