Honorary Chairman OC
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Dear sports fans,
It is a pleasure for me to be part of the organisation of the FIS Snowboard World Cup 2018 once again and therefore to welcome the best world snowboarders in Bansko, Bulgaria.
The privilege of being given the rights to organise World Cup races in Bansko by the FIS again proves the Bulgarian Ski Federation’s serious attitude when hosting world class sporting events.
Being hosts of prestigious competitions since 2009, confirms the trust given by the winter sports community to Bulgaria for our tremendous efforts to promote sports all over the world.
I’m confident that the superb conditions of our racing courses and the presence of our champions Radoslav Yankov and Alexandra Jekova will be highly appreciated by our fans. I also hope that the warm Bulgarian hospitality and the unique spirit of Bansko will touch our worldwide audience.
Good luck to all.
