Andorra has demonstrated that it is fully prepared to host events of a large international scale and the top management of the International Ski Federation (FIS) has witnessed this first hand. The love story with the Principality started to take shape twelve years ago when the first steps were taken to organise the World Cup here, resulting in Soldeu 2012 women’s events, as the World Cup director for men’s races, ​ Markus Waldner, recalls. The relationship was consolidated with the competitions in 2016 ​ and has grown stronger during the Finals held this week in Soldeu el Tarter de Grandvalira. ​ ​ And it seems very likely that the relationship will last for many years to come: “We’ve put ​ the ball in your court,” said Secretary General of the FIS, Sarah Lewis, who believes that ​ Andorra is prepared for them to “be back as soon as possible,” after hosting Finals that she described as “excellent”.
