SO MUCH LOVE FOR SKIRI TROPHY!
OVER 1,200 YOUNG SKIERS AT THE HISTORIC EVENT

37^th Skiri Trophy XCountry on Saturday and Sunday in Trentino
Amazing prizes for the winners and a rich race package for all the young participants
Revival with more than 100 athletes and… it’s not over!
G.S. Castello is involved in social activities

1,200 young cross-country skiers will take part in the 37^th edition of Skiri Trophy XCountry scheduled for Saturday and Sunday in Val di Fiemme. This sort of Cross-Country World Cup event or mini Youth World Championships continues to draw many young cross-country skiers. And the watchword of the historic G.S. Castello Organising Committee will be "joy, colour, cheerfulness", the joy of getting in touch with other cultures and practising together outdoor sports in the mountains.
The Baby and Cuccioli race is scheduled for tomorrow at 2 p.m. at the Cross-Country Stadium of Lago di Tesero, while the “Skiri Trophy Revival” – with more than 100 former participants – will start at 3.30 p.m. On Sunday there will be the Ragazzi and Allievi competition at 9.30 a.m. Skiri, the mascot of Val di Fiemme, will take pictures with everyone and fair play will play a key role in the competitions (the most deserving child will be awarded the Kinder Joy of Moving Fair Play Trophy). 
The coordinator Nicoletta Nones is very satisfied and is grateful to the sponsors: "Thanks to the sponsors we have rich prizes this year as well. The prizes are different according to the category, for example roller skis, anoraks, poles, travel bags, ski bags, cross-country ski boots for the little ones, a headband for the Revival competitors, personalised T-shirts, Kinder shoe bags and much more, not to mention the prize draw on Sunday at 2 p.m. in the main square in Castello, with a mountain bike as first prize".
The Organising Committee offers a rich program with many side events. The Kinder Joy of Moving partner will be present in Lago di Tesero with a special area dedicated to children. The parents can bring their children and enjoy the many stands. Tomorrow at 5.30 p.m. there will be the traditional welcome ceremony and the lighting of the fire torch. At 8.30 p.m. at the Cinema Teatro Comunale in Tesero there will be an entertainment show for both children and adults. G.S. Castello is also committed to charity and solidarity in memory of Elena Bellante, and will raise funds for the Proton Therapy Centre in Trento, where Elena had been treated for a few months before she passed away. Since 2006 the Organising Committee has been donating 10% of the registration fee to help needy children in the world. The Skiri Trophy starts tomorrow. Children, are you ready?
