The Opening Ceremony of the Winter Olympics is on Friday, Feb. 6 on WYFF 4. Unfortunately, there are no athletes from Greenville representing Team USA at the 2026 Winter Olympics. In fact, there are none from South Carolina heading to Northern Italy to compete. You could buck that trend in four years’ time if you sign up to learn a new sport at one of these spots:
Hockey | Explore open practice sessions, adult pick-up games, kids leagues, or just ice skating lessons at The Pavilion.
Figure skating | The Greenville Figure Skating club also calls The Pavilion Home and caters to youth skaters and adult skaters of various skill levels.
Curling | The Palmetto Curling Club hosts league play on Tuesday nights at The Pavilion, but it also has a learn-to-play clinic coming up Tuesday, Feb. 17 and Tuesday, Feb. February 24.
Skiing + snowboarding | These winter sports require a drive beyond Taylors, but we are under two hours from multiple ski resorts in NC — and might we recommend a tubing trip for some winter thrills with even less of a drive?
