Team Discovery is a weekend program (Friday’s, Saturday’s and Sunday’s) that provides budding young ski racers the start they need to become great skiers. It is an appropriate stepping stone from the Development program into the entry-level U.S. Ski & Snowboard races that aren’t fully ready to race yet.
Our goal is to develop solid all-around skiing skills by using a variety of drills and progressions taking advantage of all the mountain's terrain. Strong skiers that can ski all types of terrain on the mountain but who have never been in a racing or a teaching program as well. Skiers are grouped by age and their ability during the first weeks of the season and ski with the same professional coaches throughout the season for consistency and individual attention.
*Athletes must be committed to be there on the weekends. Actual start date depends on the weather and whether the mountain is open. **Training times are subject to change as communicated by the program director and/or head coach.
