Winter Grand Prix 2017/18
Here are the dates and races for the Winter Grand Prix Series 2017/18. There’s loads of great races over the coming months and we’ve included a variety of competitions: x-countries, 10ks, relays and even a marathon! Get stuck in and rake in the points and you could be in with a chance of bagging yourself a shiny trophy at the next presentation evening. And the more you compete the more you’re going to improve.
