Ex RACING ICE 1 (Ex RI 1) is the annual Army Novice Ice Camp to be held in Lillehammer, Norway. The exercise comprises of two individual training weeks that are identical.
Week 1 – 03 – 09 Nov 24
Week 2 – 10 – 16 Nov 24
Regiments and Corps from across the Army can send participants to learn how to Bobsleigh, Skeleton or Luge Bobsleigh in a professional, yet fun environment. Some individuals will be selected to represent their units at Ex RACING ICE 2 (Ex RI 2) which is the Army Novice, Junior and Senior Championship. Those selected will be issued with an administration instruction upon return to their base location. Those successful at Ex RI 2 will stand a good chance of being selected to represent the Army at the Inter Service Championships.
Participants are only able to practice one of the three disciplines during their time in resort. All participants must be current members of the AWSA (£15 per year). Failure to adhere to this will result in your application being rejected.

They must retain the same amount of ASL tickets for at least 12 months for this deduction to be valid.
