Skeletons in the sliding centre

I have no interest in the Winter Olympics, but this headline from the BBC caught my attention:

Britain's Amy Williams sets a new track record to lead the women's skeleton after the first of four runs at the Whistler Sliding Centre.

They have an event called skeleton?  There’s a venue called the “Sliding Centre”?

Come on, you can't expect them to call it the Cupboard.
