The IOC Coordination Commission for the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018 wrapped up its sixth visit confident that PyeongChang 2018 is moving in the right direction as Games preparations intensify in the final two years.
The Coordination Commission’s three-day visit from 14th-16th March 2016 included a series of venue visits and discussions with POCOG on all aspects of Games preparations, including the athlete experience, legacy planning and sustainability and transport, led by President Yang-ho Cho.
The first round of recent test events - the FIS Alpine, Freestyle and Snowboard World Cups - won praise from athletes and positive reviews from technical experts. The number of events and the workload for PyeongChang 2018 will soon increase dramatically, with 24 test events set for the next winter season.
Due to numerous obligations in St. Moritz and his recent attendance at the FIS Ski World Cup in Jeongseon, FIS President did not attend the 6th IOC Coordination Commission for PyeongChang 2018. FIS was represented by its Secretary General Sarah Lewis, also as Secretary General of the Association of International Olympic Winter Sports Federations.
She commented: “The successes of the recent FIS World Cup competitions in Alpine Skiing, Freestyle Skiing and Snowboard have provided the Organising Committee, POCOG with valuable experiences and learnings across numerous function areas. Much has been accomplished during the last six months and there is a strong commitment to continue to evolve and progress the preparations.”
