Since the beginning of the last century the ski sport entered the scene in San Vigilio, probably imported by tourists from bigger cities. Skiing might also have been pushed by the fact that there was a great amount of military material left over after the Great War. During the 20ies, some young people started to job as ski instructors: ski races and courses existed before. However, the Ski Club San Vigilio was founded only in 1946.
It was January 26, 1946 when our pioneers founded the San Vigilio Ski Club. Today the Ski Club is ranked as the third official Ski Club at the provincial level and eight at the national level.
The logo chosen at the time, as well as the “black-green-white” colors that represent it, have always remained unchanged and continue to distinguish our association, our members and our young athletes in the forefront.
For 75 years our primary objective has been to bring our young athletes closer to the sport of skiing, at an amateur and competitive level. Additionally, we try to promote socialization, as well as identification and respect for our territory.
Since its founding, our Ski Club has been the cradle for several generations of winter sports enthusiasts and future athletes. It has helped several successful athletes on their tiring and competitive path. The brothers Manfred and Manuel Mölgg are a concrete example.
