The Janyk Cup was created in honour of Andree Janyk in celebration of her unwavering commitment to volunteerism and sport. The Club’s Mission - developing champions in life and sport is precisely the leadership and passion that Andree exhibited with her two children (Mike and Britt) and those she came into contact with.
WMSC hosts a two-day event for U10 & U12 athletes from Cypress, Grouse, WB RDP, Sasquatch and Seymour Ski Clubs. The Nancy Greene Ski League (NGSL) Skills Event takes place on the Saturday for both U10 & U12. The Janyk Cup is held on the Sunday for U12.
The NGSL Skills Event follows a multi-station format; including Start & Skate, Speed Trap & J-turn, Dual Slalom and Combi Course. Each team is able to test their skills multiple times through each station. The Janyk Cup is a two-run combined time GS.
The Jaynk Cup is only possible with the support of volunteers. Click here to sign-up for available roles.
"The race is not only in honor of our families involvement and success in ski racing, but really rooted in my mom's, Andrée, absolute commitment to volunteerism and love for the sport. She was out, working every event we were in and building community along the way. So along with U12's getting to have fun ski racing, the Janyk Cup also celebrates the volunteers that make it happen. Get out, get involved and have fun in the mountains."
- Mike Janyk, Olympic and World Cup Skier
