A bit more than two months ago we finished a fantastic Interbancario week in the heart of the South Tyrolean Dolomites under Rosengarten and Latemar, with exciting competitions in cross-country skiing, snowboarding and giant slalom, with entertaining evenings together.

Since then the world has changed fundamentally. We are all fighting a virus now. Our health comes first, everything else has faded into the background.

The Annual Meeting of the Standing Committee in Kranjska Gora in March also fell victim to the virus. Decisions on important issues are therefore still pending.

In any case, we will keep you up to date and inform you promptly about new developments.

Stay healthy, everyone.

The Standing Committee met several times also during the Interbancario week in Carezza to prepare important decisions, but also to take decisions.

Minor adjustments have been made to the Regulations:

• Not only will the race days for the individual categories change every year as before (rotation), but in future the starting times for these categories on the respective race day will also change.
• Several indestructible, over 80-year-old racers enrich our Ski Meeting every year with their participation. They are also the first to start in the cat. G, regardless of their starting group. For them, the starting group 0 in the Cat. G will be officially introduced.
• The registration deadline for the relay races from 2021 will be brought forward to 3 p.m. on the day before the relay races (previously 7 p.m.) in order to have more time for preparing the start lists for the relay races.

Further decisions are in preparation, such as the introduction of separate categories for disabled athletes. 

New in the Standing Committee

Alain Desfonds (Credit Agricole France), a member of the Standing Committee since 2017, submitted his resignation last year. He has now been replaced by Philippe Dubois (Groupe BPCE Sports). 

We thank Alain for his commitment and his support and wish Philippe every success and enthusiasm as a member of the Standing Committee.

You can also register HERE to participate in the anniversary edition of the Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo which takes place from 18th to 25th January 2020 in Carezza Dolomites..

Here you'll find at least 3 reasons why you shouldn't miss it.

And HERE you can have a look at the full program.

As you could read in our latest news and Newsletter July 2019 from 29.07.2019, the regulations have been adjusted this year in some points. Among other things chapter 9 - Processing and protection of personal data - has been added. 

As the owner of personal data we are obliged to obtain the consent of each participant for the processing of such data.

1. The information sheet can be downloaded from our website. It can also be downloaded from the registration portal (accessible and active from 01 November 2019).
2. The participant signs the declaration of consent and waiver and hands it over to the team leader. The latter will hand it over to the race office.
3. Also one-man/woman-teams will hand over the declaration to the race office when he/she picks up the start package with the starting number.

The declaration of consent and waiver remains valid for the following years and must therefore only be submitted once.

We look forward to seeing you all in January in Carezza - Dolomites.

The Regulations with new contents are now online. This has changed:

Chapter 1.3 - The new paragraphs 2 and 3 of this chapter contain new admission criteria for participation in the Interbancario.

Chapter 9.1 - This new chapter is dedicated to information on the protection of personal data.

Chapter 10 - Annex to the Regulations - For many years the participation fees have remained unchanged. Now they have been slightly increased to 30 € (previously 27 €) per competitor / discipline and 60 € (previously 54 €) for the cross-country relay team.

On a weekend at the beginning of March, the Standing Committee met for its annual conference in Welschnofen/Nova Levante. Welschnofen/Nova Levante is the gateway to the Carezza Dolomites ski area, where the 60th Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo 2020 will take place. The conference programme also included a joint meeting with the Organising Committee of Carezza Dolomites.

Here you will find the information about the most important decisions and the resulting changes.

Extended rules for admission to the Interbancario

Restructuring and rationalisation measures in banks are normally having an impact on personnel policy. Early retirements, severance payments, termination agreements of various kinds or sabbaticals are sometimes the result.

With an extended regulation of the admission requirements, we are attempting to enable the persons affected by these measures to continue to participate in the Interbancario. A corresponding change to the regulations is in preparation.

Privacy - Consent to the publication of photos

The registration for the Interbancario in the future also includes the consent to the publication of photos.

Participation fee adjusted

From November 2019 the participation fee will be 30 Euro per participant and discipline and 60 Eurofor each cross-country relay team.

Race tracks and ski pass prices

The alpine ski and snowboard races are held on the FIS-homologated Laurin III slope. The common finish area for all categories is directly at the Frommer Alm, where the mountain station of the Laurin I cable car, which leads up from Welschnofen/Nova Levante, is also located.

The multi-day ski passes at new special prices are now also valid for the entire neighbouring Fassa Valley.

You can find all the information you need on the homepage of the Organising Committee of Carezza Dolomites www.interbancario2020.it.

  Dear friends,

  Severino Dinoni passed away on the 5th of October.

  Severino Dinoni was a member of the Standing Committee of the Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo from 1988 to 2012. The Interbancario community has lost a passionate skier and a committed supporter.

  Already in December 2015, our long-time Vice President, member of the Standing Committee from 1980 to 2014, Gustl Prohaczka, has passed away.

Our thanks and recognition go to both of them.

The Standing Committee

Actually, much has already been fixed regarding the 59th Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo 2019 in Maria Alm. The local Organizing Committee with President Franz Bauer is already quite active.

But: The expectations for the next Interbancario are high. We all want to look forward to an extremely interesting, varied Interbancario week with new offers and many highlights.

A meeting in August in Maria Alm between members of the Standing Committee and the Local Organizing Committee was used to clarify details of the racing and evening program. This included a meeting with the timekeepers of RaceTimePro.

The new version of our Regulations is now online. The section 07 "Snowboard" is completely new. We have extended the instructions for the transfer of participation fees, as well as the section on results (point 3.4.). In addition, the Regulations contain some useful adjustments and clarifications.

The Regulations can also be downloaded as a PDF document.

At the same time, we have also inserted in the current category overview the new categories for snowboarding.

The Alpine roses on Penserjoch (Sarntal, South Tyrol – 2.211 m) confirm that the summer has arrived. From the south of Europe to the high north, people enjoy sun, mountains, sea and everything in between.

We'll take our time to prepare well for all the changes and news of the Interbancario 2019.

We wish you all a sunny, eventful summer.

Earlier than usual you can now book your hotel rooms for the 59th Interbancario in Maria Alm 2019.

Slopes: challenging and varied

  An event like the Interbancario requires forward-looking planning over several years and diligent work and preparation throughout the year.

Like every year, the Standing Committee met again this March in the venue of the next Interbancario for its spring session.

This includes a visit to cross-country slopes and giant slalom race-courses. Together with the Organizing Committee, the course of the two race tracks for giant slalom, the start positions for the single categories and the finish area have been fixed.

Our conclusion, which applies to both the cross-country skiing slopes and the giant slalom slopes:
challenging, but also varied and interesting. It will be fun for everyone.

So we can look forward to the next Interbancario from the 26th of January to the 2nd of February 2019 in Maria Alm.

Please find here a draft version of the Competitions Program 2019.

The organizers of the Interbancario 2018, together with the Standing Committee, had some challenges to tackle on Marguns and in Pontresina.

Weather determines program

The reason for this was the weather, which dominated the event from Tuesday on, with snowfall, strong wind and fog. Extra shifts were necessary to adapt the racing program and to communicate the amendments. Some decisions could only be taken early in the morning of the same day, at 07.00 o‘clock on Plateau Nair (2.660 m).

Strong Team

That is why all those who contributed to the success of the Interbancario 2018 deserve a sincere "thank you". The Co-Presidents of the Organizing Committee, Martin Berthod and Jan Steiner, Martina Hänzi as a reference point in the rather turbulent event, Wim Rossel as omnipresent race director of the alpine races, Stephan Müller as a committed race director of the cross-country competitions, the timekeepers, all helpers in the race office, on the slopes and along the trails have done great things.

Weatherproof

Special thanks are also due to all the participants, who resisted wind and bad weather never losing their good mood and their enthusiasm for the Interbancario

Thank you and see you in Maria Alm

All over Europe we are now enjoying the warmer seasons of the year, yet at the same time we are al- ready looking forward to the next winter season 2017-18 and to the 58th Ski Meeting Interbancario Eu- ropeo which will take place in St. Moritz and in Pontresina (Switzerland) from 13 to 20 January 2018.
In a joint meeting between the Organising Committee of St. Moritz / Pontresina 2018 and the Standing Committee, the course for next winter’s Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo was set and some important programme items and speci c procedures were de ned.

At the same time, the yearly spring meeting of the Standing Committee (SC) was held. Given the wi- thdrawal of four members of the Standing Committee at the beginning of February 2017 at the end of the event in Olang/Antholz, vacant positions had to be lled and the single organs of the Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo had to be rede ned. Please nd further detailed information under the heading “Standing Committee” and “News”.

During this meeting, the Standing Committee had an extensive work programme and dealt with recur- ring issues such as amendments of the regulations, the statement of accounts, as well as other relevant issues, which are of great importance for the development of the Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo.

Among others, the discussions revolved around the venues for the Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo in the years to come and the requirements of the future organizers. Furthermore, a rst step was taken towards creating a new communication platform with the aim of a better exchange of information bet- ween participants and the Standing Committee. In addition, a decision was taken regarding the collec- tion of ideas in order to advance the development of the format of the event. An international working group made up especially of young participants of the Ski Meeting Interbancario Europeo will deal with the latter issue.
