Hi guys
today we will start with the sad news that
Dougie
Crawford has announced his Retirement from Ski Racing.
Dougie
has declare that he is to retire from ski racing after a nine year career,
this is partly due to the fact that the ski federation has stopped funding our
most talented speed skiers leaving them with no or little financial support.
This
just goes to prove how dedicated Dougie has been to this sport over the last
few years, as being self funded has proven to be extremely difficult
especially in today economy.
What
a shame, when snowsports has caught the interest of so many after the 2014
winter Olympics. There is a fantastic range of talent out there but without financial
funding, they will no doubt find it almost impossible to continue.
I
would just like to say what a fantastic ambassador you have been for the
Scottish skiing as well as snowsports in general, with many younger talent
looking up to you with the desire and aspirations to attain success at the
same level.
I
am so glad to hear that you will not be disappearing altogether and passing on all that incredible skill and knowledge you have acquired
thought your career.
We
will all miss you and look forward to following your next new adventures.
