The partnership between the club, training center, and Whistler Blackcomb dates back to the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cToday\u2019s announcements represent a huge step forward for the Dave Murray National Training Centre,\u201d DMNTC Board of Directors Chair Rob Toole said.<\/strong> \u201cWe have terrific legacy assets from the 2010 Winter Olympics, but they need investment and upgrades to provide for more consistent conditions across the whole season. We\u2019re very appreciative of the support from the Government of Canada and Alpine Canada, as well as our fantastic partners at Whistler Blackcomb, and we\u2019re thrilled to launch the Vision 2050 Capital Campaign with WMSC today.\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Related: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/burning-mans-dry-ski-slope-organizers-launch-urgent-25000-fundraiser-to-return-in-2026\/\">Burning Man\u2019s Dry Ski Slope Organizers Launch Urgent $25,000 Fundraiser to Return in 2026<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>In addition to funding for the Whistler Mountain Ski Club, other ski and snowboard organizations and facilities are getting funding from the Government of Canada as well.\u00a0<\/strong>Canada Snowboard, the sport\u2019s national governing body, received $4 million in Build Better Communities funding. Canada Snowboard will use its funds to conduct upgrades at the WinSport Halfpipe in Calgary, the Nakiska National Ski Cross Training Centre, and the Olympic Oval from the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Build Canada Strong funding will also be used to support athletes across the country. <\/strong>Each year, the Government of Canada will be investing an additional $3 million through the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/canadian-heritage\/services\/funding\/athlete-assistance.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Athlete Assistance Program<\/a>\u00a0(AAP). The AAP is designed to assist athletes with the finances associated with competing in international events, and additional investments into the AAP will help raise allowances for athletes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For athletes balancing their sports with academic or work car<\/strong><strong>eers, increased allowances can relieve financial pressures that come with training and competing at a high level.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>With its new investment, the Government of Canada looks to continue to produce top skiers and snowboarders as the 2030 Olympics slowly creep closer. <\/strong>World-class skiers like Jack Crawford, Marielle Thompson, and Brodie Seger have all made their way to Olympic competition with coaching and training provided by the Whistler Mountain Ski Club. By investing in the club and its facilities, the Whistler Mountain Ski Club will have all the tools it needs to produce the next generation of elite alpine skiers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe quality of our training facilities is a key part of our success as a Club, and we\u2019re excited to continue to develop the next generation of alpine skiing athletes in British Columbia,\u201d Chair of the Whistler Mountain Ski Club\u2019s Board of Directors Duncan Reid said.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_418927\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-418927\" style=\"width: 1280px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-418927 lazyload\" src=\"image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAABQAAAALQAQMAAAD1s08VAAAABlBMVEUAAAD\/\/\/+l2Z\/dAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAIdJREFUeNrtwTEBAAAAwqD1T20JT6AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAeBrE3wABnPeUSgAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" data-src=\"https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Skiing-at-Whistler-Blackcomb.avif\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Skiing-at-Whistler-Blackcomb.avif 1280w, https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Skiing-at-Whistler-Blackcomb-300x169.avif 300w, https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Skiing-at-Whistler-Blackcomb-1200x675.avif 1200w, https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Skiing-at-Whistler-Blackcomb-768x432.avif 768w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-eio-rwidth=\"1280\" data-eio-rheight=\"720\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-418927\" src=\"https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Skiing-at-Whistler-Blackcomb.avif\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" data-eio=\"l\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-418927\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">To enhance facility funding, Whistler Blackcomb has agreed to a new 10-year partnership with the Whistler Mountain Ski Club and the Dave Murray National Training Center. | Credit: The Australian<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 -->\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Whistler Mountain Ski Club ski racer tears up the course at a race at Whistler Blackcomb. | Credit: Whistler Mountain Ski Club Facebook The Government of Canada is investing heavily in the country\u2019s competitive skiing future, with a recent announcement that up to $2.2 million in funding will go to the Whistler Mountain Ski [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[226,267],"class_list":["post-2113529","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-crawlmanager","tag-snowbrains-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2113529","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2113529"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2113529\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2113529"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2113529"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2113529"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
