Snowsport England Affiliation

The Muslim Ski Club is proud to announce our affiliation with Snowsport England (SSE) - the national governing body for snow sports in England.

Our race club is operated through Ski Club CIC, a community-interest company dedicated to providing inclusive, Muslim-friendly skiing and snowboarding opportunities.

Affiliation ensures that we meet the highest standards of governance, safeguarding, and community practice while giving our members access to wider opportunities within the sport.

Why a UK-Based Sports Club?

While many of our trips and activities take place abroad, establishing a UK-based sports club is a vital step for our community. It allows some of our members to:

✅ Participate in official snow sport competitions in the UK

✅ Access member-only training, courses, and development opportunities through SSE

✅ Benefit from insurance cover and discounts from SSE partners

✅ Be part of a recognised, safe, and inclusive structure that develops talent in snow sports at every level

Important Information
