Biathlon: three British athletes in Grand-Bornand
This week, as Nordic Magazine has learned, the biathlon World Cup in Le Grand-Bornand (Haute-Savoie) will feature three British athletes at the start. Coached by Haut-Savoyard Iris Pessey, they will be Shawna Pendry, Chloé Dupont and Jacques Jefferies.
For the latter, who moved from France to Great Britain this summer, it will be a big first on the most prestigious of circuits. I’m really happy, it’s an incredible opportunity,” he told Nordic Magazine. […] I know I’ll have support even as a neighbouring country. All I’m waiting for is to be at the start.
