The GB Luge Team needs your help  We have great athletes with huge potential but we need better funding to give our sliders the support they deserve and push them closer to Olympic medals for Beijing 2022!

Luge is the fastest sport on ice and the only Olympic sport timed to 1000th of a second. Athletes hit speeds up to 90mph and experience forces in excess of 5G as they drive themselves down the track just inches from the ice. Its a fast paced, exciting and dangerous sport where the margin between victory and defeat can come down to mere millimeters whilst crashes and injury are never far away. Our dedicated athletes are desperate to represent Team GB at the 2022 Winter Olympics and need your support to make it to the Games. Luge is an unfunded sport in the UK and athletes rely on public donations and their own personal funds in order to train and compete. With your help we can fly the flag for Britain at the Olympics in this incredible sport.

The GB Luge team are: Danielle Scott, AJ Rosen, Ray Thompson, Lucas Gebauer-Barrett and Rupert Staudinger.
