Putting their best boot forward.
2023 — 2024 Ski Race Programs.
Ages 5 — 11.
Develop comprehensive skiing and racing skills through technical and structured free skiing, gate training, individual challenges, and the occasional snow ball fight.
Skiing on Sunshine’s challenging and varied terrain is a real asset as the athletes learn the rules of the mountain with a strong emphasis on having fun.
As the athletes in these programs master their newfound abilities, there is an increased focus on smart decision-making skills. There are few sports that can teach the cognitive autonomy that skiing and ski-racing can. These programs foster important life skills under the positive mentorship of our coaches.
