Junior DTeam Ski Racing

This is a 11-week development program for ages 6-17 that starts in early December and ends at the end of February.  The program emphasizes the development of ski racing skills in both slalom and giant slalom disciplines.  Basic skiing fundamentals are recommended such as the ability to ski most types of terrain as well as being able to stay in control at all times.  All team members are required to know how to safely mount, ride and dismount a chairlift on their own. Great memories, long lasting friendships and fun are what have made this program so successful. There is a Saturday and a Sunday program available as well as an extra training program on Thursday evenings.  Our D-team program is a member of the Midwest Snowsports Development League (MSDL)
