SanaClis is proud to once again stand behind the Žampa Cup Ski Race - an uplifting tradition founded by the Žampa brothers in 2014. What began as a local initiative has grown into a beloved cross-border event, welcoming over 700 young skiers aged 8 to 16 from Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and Poland.
This year’s event, held from 29 - 30 March 2025 in the stunning setting of Štrbské Pleso, was filled with unforgettable moments, world-class inspiration, and a powerful message: skiing should be accessible to all. With no participation fees and a spirit of openness, the Žampa Cup gives kids a true taste of ski racing, removing barriers and replacing them with pure passion and excitement.
As part of our ongoing partnership with the Žampa Ski Team and the Slovak Ski Association, SanaClis is also proud to support the Open Ski Kids Race in the High Tatras, extending opportunities to even more aspiring athletes.
This year’s event was extra special. Our own SanaClis ski team took to the slopes, joined by Finnish alpine skier Erika Pykäläinen, who brought her energy and elite racing spirit to our team. And on Day 2, young racers were surprised by none other than Croatian ski champion Zrinka Ljutić - fresh off her Slalom World Cup win in Sun Valley, Idaho, who spent the day signing autographs, taking photos, and sharing encouraging words with the next generation of talent.
Beyond the slopes, our employees and their families enjoyed the peaceful beauty of the Slovak mountains, bonding over hikes, hot chocolate, and the joy of cheering on the racers.
At SanaClis, we believe in creating moments that go beyond business. Supporting youth, nurturing dreams, and building community - this is the kind of impact we’re proud to champion.
See you next year at the finish line!
