Dear Members,
Thank you for 4 good years and your support in bringing Dubai Ski Club forward to where we are today. As my real work has become more demanding and my children older I feel I cannot give Dubai Ski Club my 100% devotion any more. It’s therefore my decision to hand over the “controls” and stay on as a normal member.
I have worked with Andreas and have known Martin for many years and am confident that they together will do their best to bring Dubai Ski Club to a new level.
Best regards and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Jennie and Lars Ipland
Dear Friends & Members of the Dubai Ski Club,
As stated above by Lars Ipland, he has made the decision to step back as the chairman of Dubai Ski Club as he wants to devote more of his time to his wife Jenny and his 2 boys when he is not flying Emirates planes. As the founder and the creator of Dubai Ski Club it is due to his commitment, his engagement and effort that we have the “hottest” Ski Club in the world. Lars and Jennie, we thank you very much for all the skiing at Ski Dubai, the DSC Mini World Cup races, the ski holidays, the parties………….
Dubai Ski Club will be managed from now on by the new Dubai Ski Club Executive Board Members Andreas Teufl (Chairman) and Martin Dolezal. Most of you will know Andreas as the Race Manager for our Mini World Cups. Martin is the President of Snowsports Academy, which is also the organizer of our Austrian Ski Club Holidays. During the last 4 years he provided the training and certification of the Ski Dubai Instructors through
We have great ambitions for the next few years and we hope that we can satisfy the high expectations of our members. All our members are most welcome to actively participate in the constant improvement process and bring to us suggestions and opinions to enable us remain the hottest and hippest Ski Club around.
Some of the details for our new 2010 program are still under discussion but we will work hard to announce the new program by the beginning of 2010. To date we would like to proclaim only the new memberships for children, young adults and families, which were requested by a lot of our members. We are still discussing some details with Ski Dubai for a special kids and youth race program but have already started taking applications for kids, young adults and families memberships.

Family membership
“Kids” Membership will be considered for children until their 14th birthday.
“Young adults” are members until their 19th birthday.
“Family” Membership is considered for parents with up to 10 children. If we have a parents out there with more than 10 children, Dubai Ski Club is taking over the DSC Membership Fee for the whole family J.
