Taster sessions

With a renewed focus on bringing home medals from the 2026 Olympic Winter Games in Milan Cortina, the BBSA will not be running public taster sessions during the summer of 2025.

Should you have a group enquiry, though, please do contact us via email at office@thebbsa.co.uk and will endeavour to facilitate your request.

Individual booking taster sessions will resume post the Olympics in the spring of 2026.

What's involved?

• Taster sessions take place at our unique push track at the University of Bath, the only track of its kind in the country
  
  
• You’ll receive world-class coaching from current GB athletes and/or GB coaches, who will show you the tricks of the trade, pass on tips and advice to improve your technique and answer all your questions on the sport
  
  
• Speed is at the heart of both bobsleigh and skeleton so you’ll have plenty of time to test yourself against the clock once you’ve learnt the basics
  
  
• Sessions are open to complete beginners and no experience is required
  
  
• If you've attended a session before, you're more than welcome to come again - we'll make sure you make even more progress second time around
  
  
• You don't have to be super fit - we tailor your session to your capabilities
  
  
• Adult sessions are for those aged 16 and above but there is no upper age limit as long as you're healthy. Junior sessions will also be offered post Milan Cortina

• We cater for all different shapes and sizes but if you have any concerns about your ability to take part, please don't hesitate to get in touch direct
