About Us
EUSSC cater for all your snowsports needs here at Edinburgh. Whether a seasoned pro or a beginner we’re guaranteed to have something for you.
Welcome to the Edinburgh University Snowsports Club! EUSSC is the largest sports club in the university and undoubtedly one of the most fun. We are one of the most successful University Snowsports clubs of recent years with Team EUSSC riders smashing it in all things racing and freestyle. We organise regular training sessions on dry slope to improve the game of our top athletes and coach those wanting to get involved in the sport. We run lessons for everyone from complete beginners to those wanting to simply brush up on their skills. While we love to compete we also want to get as many people involved in snowsports as possible! Our socials have also gained pretty legendary status around town. Becoming a member of EUSSC also gives you access to our famous ski trip to the Alps. It promises to be even bigger and better than ever!
We have 3 membership options available:
CLUB: Fancy coming to our socials and our ANNUAL CHRISTMAS SKI TRIP, but don’t fancy skiing at Hillend (our local dry slope) or training? This is the option for you!
TEAM: Come and join Team EUSSC this year to train and compete in Race or Freestyle! Everybody’s welcome, whether you’re a seasoned professional or a competition newbie, if you're keen, come along and join the fun. We offer weekly training in Slalom and Freestyle and the opportunity to compete throughout the year!
REC: Keen to get on the slopes but don’t fancy training or competing with us? The rec membership will give you the ability to come and join us at our local dry slope: Hillend to free ski! This membership gives you free ski tickets, rentals and transport to the slope with the freedom to do what you like when you’re there!
N.B. A standard membership is required along with a rec or team membership to come on the January Trip.
