The tracks in Vysočina Arena are closed due to unpleasent weather coniditions. The World Cup is not in danger
Adverse weather conditions have forced the organisers of the BMW IBU World Cup that takes place from 2 to 5 March 2023 in Nové Město na Moravě, to close all tracks in Vysočina Arena.
“We have enough snow in the reservoir, the World Cup is in no way endangered,” assures Vlastimil Jakeš, the Director of Competitions at NMNM. “However, we only plan to start with further preparations of the tracks once the weather gets colder, which meteorologists predict for the end of this week.”
The organisers therefore ask all athletes and skiers to respect the closure of the tracks. “At the moment the tracks are not safe for skiers,” adds Vlastimil Jakeš. The aim of the closure is to protect the health of skiers and to manage the snow supplies in a sustainable way.
