Greta Small (born 16 October 1995) is an Australian alpine skier. She first started skiing at Mt Hotham with MHRS before her parents sold their family home to help fund her skiing adventures. Her main training base now is out of the Tirol region in Austria where she trains with Race Centre Benni Raich. Her first major international appearance was at the Innsbruck 2012 Youth Winter Olympics. The '13/'14 Northern Hemisphere winter has been a first of many things for Small. She has competed at the Solden opening World Cup Giant Slalom followed by 3 World Cup events in Beaver Creek, Colorado, and the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.[2]

Unfortunately in early 2015 whilst racing in Japan, Greta tore her ACL.
