What sports will complement the 2030 Winter Games event schedule ? The question will constantly accompany Edgar Grospiron and the COJOP in the coming months. The subject is one of the issues to be decided without delay since it is intrinsically linked to the map of the sites, on which the planning of these Games depends Olympic and Paralympic. Val d'Isère, which did not obtain any event in the first version of the plan, is at the heart of all the discussions. « We will go to Val d'Isère at the beginning of March, as I will go to Briançonnais and Nice”, Grospiron replied in the columns of Le Dauphiné. Edgar Grospiron cites six options, but not freeride, which Val Thorens is banking on : "We will work calmly and study everything on the table with ski mountaineering, speed skiing, telemark, even cross-country or cyclo-cross and why not ice-cross. After that we will have to budget... » The President of the CNOSF David Lappartient has shown himself to be in favour of cross-country and cyclo-cross since the first would allow "to open the Winter Games to Africa" and that the second would benefit from great visibility thanks to the participation of cycling stars.
