Beijing 2022 – Team GB squad announced

Cometh the hour, cometh Team GB

The British Olympic Association (BOA) has announced the 18 skiers and three snowboarders selected to represent Team GB at the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games.

GB Snowsport athletes will represent the nation in nine disciplines during the Games, with nine athletes selected for Team GB for the first time.

For the remaining twelve squad members, Beijing will mark a return to the Olympic Winter Games, with Britain’s first ever Alpine World Cup winner skier, Dave Ryding, and nordic skiers Andrew Musgrave and Andrew Young each set to appear in their fourth Olympic Winter Games.

Reigning snowboard cross World Champion, Charlotte Bankes, and Sochi 2014 silver medallist, Gus Kenworthy, will each be competing in their third Olympic Winter Games, but their first for Team GB, Bankes having represented France in 2014 and 2018, and Kenworthy the USA.

The athletes head to Beijing in excellent form, with promising early season results across all disciplines and, in Bankes, a reigning World Champion and current World Cup points leader in Snowboard Cross.

The 11 male and ten female athletes selected will be looking to build on Britain’s recent successes in international ski and snowboard competition, which includes six FIS, Europa Cup and World Cup podium positions from this season alone.
