| NANCY
GREENE SKI LEAGUE: |
|
| The
Alcan Nancy Greene Ski League is the "FUNdamental"
stage in ski racing for children between 6-12 years of age.
During this time they will be introduced to basic skiing techniques
and skills, develop the ABC's (agility, balance,coordination,
strength/speed) in as many different snow conditions and terrain
as possible and most of all have FUN
on skis. |
| Each year the
children participate within their club or at the provincial
level in team and individual competitions. These events encourage
new friendships in a fun and friendly environment while demonstrating
the skills developed in the Alcan Nancy Greene Ski League. |
| The "Snow
Stars" program is a seven step skills program
for children at this age level - supplements the Alcan Nancy
Greene Ski League and offers a fun version to learning the
skills of skiing and eventually ski racing. |
| The philosophy
of the program promotes FUN,
SAFETY, SKILL
DEVELOPMENT and FAIR PLAY
for children. Skiing fundamentals are taught and progress
is acknowledged with the SKILLS AWARDS system. |
| Nancy Greene Ski League runs
each Saturday and Sunday from January until Spring Break 9
am until 12 pm. Optional 4 day Christmas and Spring Camps
are available. |
| The children are
assigned to groups by age and skiing ability. |
