The assignment of the 2017 European Cup finals, decided last June in Cancun (Mexico) during the 50 Congress of the International Ski Federation (FIS), rewards the ability of the Alpine Army troops of the Italian Army to organize and manage important international events, of which i Alpine Troops Skiing Championships (CaSTA) represent a clear example.

The CaSTAs have hosted women's European Cup competitions for several years and, as achieved in past years, convinced the International Federation to entrust the Alpini with the responsibility for the four final races of the season, those decisive for the awarding of both the general Trophy and those of the individual specialties.

The slopes will be those of San Candido and Alta Val Pusteria, on the most beautiful mountains in the world - the Dolomites - which will host the international military event now in its 13th edition from 19 to 69 March.
