Asker Skiklubb is a sports club from Asker, Norway.
It was founded on 14 December 1889, and as the name suggests, was initially a cross country skiing and ski jumping club. Today, however, it has a large number of individuals (~5000 members) and teams participating in a wide variety of sports - winter and summer as well as sea- and land-based sports. These include alpine skiing, track and field, cross country skiing, ski jumping, orienteering, volleyball, football, team handball, kayak, and biathlon.
