Gateley partners with GB Snowsport for 2025/26 season
Professional services firm announced as latest addition to GB Snowsport partnership roster
Professional services group Gateley has agreed a deal with GB Snowsport to become its official legal partner ahead of the 2026 winter season, which culminates with the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in Milan-Cortina, Italy.
The deal will see Gateley support the athletes in their preparations by funding a series of final training camps to give them the best level of preparation ahead of the season, which continues with the Alpine Slalom World Cup in Levi, Finland, on 16th November. In addition, Gateley will also work with GB Snowsport and its community partners to broaden access to the sport across the country.
GB Snowsport is the national governing body for high-performance snowsports in the UK, managing 12 Olympic and Paralympic Snowsport disciplines, to help athletes to reach World Cup podiums and win Olympic and Paralympic medals.
As part of the partnership, Gateley will provide legal support for GB Snowsport across a variety of practice areas, including commercial and personnel, throughout the 2025/26 season.
Chris Kisby, partner at Gateley, said:
“This is a partnership founded on a shared commitment of performance, inspiration and community, and we are incredibly proud to support GB Snowsport and its elite ahtletes on snow throughout this season and into the Milan-Cortina Olympic and Paralympic Games next year. As a nation, there is a misconception that we have no right to be competing at the level we do in snowsports, yet we have world champions across multiple disciplines. GB Snowsport and its athletes are true disruptors in the sporting world and it is this high-performance culture that resonates so much with our people and our clients, making this the perfect partnership for us.”
Vicky Gosling, GB Snowsport chief executive, added:
“We are delighted to welcome Gateley to the GB Snowsport team. With the new season already upon us and an Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games on the horizon, this has the potential to be a momentous season for British skiers and snowboarders.
“We have been deeply impressed with Gateley’s commitment to our sport and to our athletes, and having their support and expertise heading into the new season will be a real game changer for all of us involved in British elite snowsport.”
During this Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games cycle, GB Snowsport has been able to boast four world champions, including reigning freeski halfpipe champion Zoe Atkin, as well as Mia Brookes (freestyle snowboard slopestyle), Charlotte Bankes and Huw Nightingale (team snowboard cross) and Neil Simpson (para alpine), as well as celebrating 46 podium finishes by its athletes in 2024/25 season.
