The Kandahar Ski Club was founded by Arnold Lunn and other British skiers on 30 January 1924 in Mürren, Switzerland. The club was founded as a ski racing club and with the purpose of promoting downhill and slalom racing at a time when Alpine skiing competitions were not recognised internationally. The Kandahar Ski Club takes its name from the Roberts of Kandahar Challenge Cup; the first ski race held was in 1911 over the Plaine Morte Glacier in Crans-Montana, Switzerland for a trophy donated by Field Marshal Earl Roberts of Kandahar. The winner was Cecil Hopkinson.
