The Prize

Experience an unforgettable weekend in Predazzo in Valle di Fiemme, in close contact with athletes and technicians of the Fiamme Gialle Skiers Group.

This two-night stay for up to 4 people is a custom-made experience based on your favorite winter sports.

A wide variety of activities can be chosen from: downhill and cross-country skiing, biathlon, ski jumping and nordic combined, snow-shoe hiking, nordic walking and various excursions (even to nearby mountain towns, the ski jumping stadium, cross-country center or other areas of cultural interest/tourism).

There will be a professional technical staff at your and your guests' disposal of qualified ski instructors and physiotherapists, and ski-men. Many of them, like Matteo Guadagnini and Angelo Weiss, regularly follow the men and women athletes of the Italian national teams. Among the amazing champions of the past who have trained at the Fiamme Gialle facilities are the great names: Gustav Thoeni, Piero Gros, Franco Nones, Giorgio Vanzetta, Kristian Ghedina, Denise Karbon, Cristian Zorzi and Isolde Kostner, just to name a few.

The Friday-night to Sunday-morning stay must take place by April 2018, on a date to be mutually agreed upon with the Fiamme Gialle staff and lodging facilities, in order to create the most appropriate experience to meet participants' abilities and needs. Minors must be accompanied by an adult in order to participate. Full-board accommodations in single or double rooms, depending on availability.

The Cause

The Federazione Italiana Sport Invernali (FISI) is the federation that organizes, promotes and coordinates the practice of winter sports in Italy.

Founded in 1908 with the name Unione Ski Club Italiani, this nonprofit organization has its headquarters in Milan and is affiliated with CONI, the Italian Olympic Committee.

FISI represents 16 disciplines, 10 of which are Olympic, and is active throughout Italy with 18 regional committees and delegations.

The Federation's impressive list of athletes has brought home a total of 101 Olympic medals, 350 World Championship medals, and a countless number of international successes.

Federation athletes, in cooperation with Pool Sci Italia, donate their autographed ski equipment, like helmets, skis and other unique memorabilia to charity.

Exclusive experiences in the champions' company are also auctioned off: overnight stays during the selection phases for the Alpine Skiing World Cup in Italy or a few days as a guest at the Gruppi Sportivi Militari (Military Sporting Groups) to spend a day with a great former champion or have a peek behind the scenes of world champion athletic training.

Make your donation and participate in this solidarity project along with your champions. All proceeds will go toward rebuilding the facilities and services supporting winter sports in the areas struck by earthquakes in Central Italy.

The FISI Federal Council will donate the funds at the end of the 2017/18 season.
