Mazet steps down as Head Coach of Norwegian Men's Team after next season
Siegfried Mazet will be stepping down as Head Coach of the Norwegian Biathlon Men's Team after the Olympic Season 2025-2026. This was announced by the Norwegian Biathlon Federation in a press release earlier this afternoon. Mazet had taken on the role in 2016, guiding the team to over 150 World Cup victories in his decade-long tenure. - and still counting until next March.
I’ve had a fantastic time with the Norwegian team and would like to say a big thank you. I’ve really enjoyed my time here. But after nearly ten years, I feel it’s time to pass the baton - Siegfried Mazet
Mazet came to Norway in 2016 and has since played a central role in the Norwegian team’s success. His eye for detail, combined with a unique ability to build strong relationships, has made him one of the most respected coaches in the biathlon community, often lending his expertise in the IBU Academy's Coach Education Courses in recent years.
Siegfried doesn’t just see us as biathletes, but as whole people. He’s been an important figure for our team, both professionally and personally. Losing Siegfried is sad, but we’re incredibly grateful for the time we had with him. No matter what the future brings, Siegfried will always have a special place with us - Sturla Holm Lægreid
