The facilities of the Sjusjøen Arena Natrudstilen (Norway) host the European Biathlon Championships from Wednesday January 28 to Sunday February 1. A sort of aperitif to wait before the Milan-Cortina Olympic Games scheduled for February 6 to 22.
This event constitutes the sixth stage of the B circuit of the IBU Cup biathlon. An ideal meeting to observe the richness of the French breeding ground in the discipline. The Tricolores will be led by Paula Botet overall leader for women and by Antonin Guigonnat for men.
The young players of the French team will start with the individual on Wednesday, then continue with the sprint on Friday, the pursuit will take place on Saturday and the competition will close with the relay events on Sunday.
The biathlon events can be followed on the L’Équipe channel and Eurosport 2. The races start at 10:20 a.m. on Wednesday 28, while they start at 10:45 a.m. on Friday 30 and Saturday 31, and finally at 10:40 a.m. on Sunday 1 February.
