About Elisabeth Maier
Elisabeth Vathje is a Canadian retired skeleton racer. In 2008, she was encouraged to try sliding sports by her father, who had shared an airplane trip with members of the Canadian luge team, but as a 14-year-old, she was too young to train bobsleigh, so she tried out for skeleton instead. She used a Bromley sled. Vathje was named one of the three women to represent Canada in skeleton at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang after finishing third in the World Cup season standings for 2017–18. She retired in 2022 after being left off the Canadian team for the 2021–22 season. Elisabeth has since transitioned in to leadership within the International sporting realm, sitting on the International Bobsleigh & Skeleton Federation (IBSF) Executive Committee. She was elected to the World Anti Doping Agency Athletes Council in early 2025. She continues to champion good governance in the international sporting realm, educating current and future leaders through her company of the Global Association of Sports Directors (GASD)
