the Winter competition. Unfortunately, both teams performed less well than in
their previous participation. Twelve members of Italian team Ponte di Legno had

Returning Teams and Competitors |
Italian team Aosta had previously appeared in the summer Jeux Sans
Frontières in 1975 and would compete once more later in 1979. The team
also joined forces with other neighbouring ski resorts to participate in Interneige 1977 and 1980 and
Jeux Sans Frontières 1988. The town of
Cogne featured in the Jeux Sans Frontières competition of 1992. |
Additional Information |
This heat was never transmitted on French television due to a strike by
television personnel during the week of intended broadcast. The programme was
transmitted as normal by the other competing countries.
Due to their appearance not being seen in France due to the strike, the French
team of Megève were given another opportunity to participate in 1980 when they
joined forces with neighbouring ski resort La Blanche. |
