THIS YEAR'S AWARDS HOSTS
EDDIE 'THE EAGLE' EDWARDS
Michael Edwards, better known as Eddie “The Eagle” Edwards, was Born in Cheltenham. Eddie learnt to ski at the Gloucester Ski & Snowboard Centre in the United Kingdom.To improve his chances of qualifying for the Calgary Olympics in 1988, he moved to Lake Placid in the US to train and enter races of a higher standard. However, he quickly found himself short on funds. To realise his Olympic dream, he decided to switch to ski jumping for reasons of cost and easier qualification as there were no other British ski jumpers with whom to compete for a place. The rest, as they say, is history!
