Technification campus for athletes with disabilities

Adaptive skiing and snowboarding technification campus

Year after year, our Foundation, in collaboration with the Aran Inclusive Sports Center (CDIA), hosts the technification campus both for athletes already initiated, as well as some novices, to improve their technique and knowledge of alpine skiing and snowboarding with technicians, nutritionists and psychologists from the Aran Inclusive Sports Center national team. Participating at the Fundación Occident Campus are, on the one hand, skiers and riders with first-hand experience in competition and on the other, athletes with an initial level of competition, but when working on the slopes, these are differentiated proposals and adapted to the technical level of each participant. The Arán Valley, and its ski resort Baqueira Beret —of which Jesús Serra Santamans was one of its main promoters—, are the perfect environment for the 20 sportspeople selected to improve their technical and competitive skills in these concentrations of the Fundación Occident Campus. Since the 2021 edition, the campus, in addition to being adaptive, will also be inclusive as athletes with disabilities will attend alongside other young skiers from the Valley without disabilities, generating an integrated environment and knowledge of the multiple capacities of each athlete.

The date for this season 2023/2024 are:

- 17 to 22 December 2023 (completed).

- 21 to 26 January 2024.
