Programs are offered for ages 9+, with both recreational and competition streams having a low participant-to-coach ratio for optimum learning and safety.
New for 2025:
– Creation of a new mid-day FUNdamental ski technique lesson for all program participants, club members, parents, siblings, etc on both Saturdays and Sundays.
– After the ski lesson, there will be an optional Club Group Ski on both Saturdays and Sundays. You can ski with your coach, friends, siblings, parents/children, or spouse. Everyone will have someone to ski with of similar ability!
– Morning programs will start with a shooting lesson, and follow this up with the mid-day ski lesson and group ski. (Program timing: 9:30am to 1:00pm)
– Afternoon programs will start with the mid-day ski lesson and group ski, and follow this up with a shooting lesson. (Program timing: 11:30am to 3:00pm)
Tentative 2025 program schedule:
Also new for 2025 is the creation of 3 distinct levels for our Adult Recreational (i.e. Masters) Program:
- Bronze Level (Sunday mornings) – Intended for new biathletes, or those with 1 or 2 years experience that are still developing core shooting skills (position, breathing, sight picture, trigger pressure, follow-through) and putting the rifle on/off.
- Silver Level (either Saturday afternoons or Wednesday afternoons) – Intended for biathletes that have completed at least 1 or 2 years of the Bronze Level program (or equivalent) and are comfortable with shooting both prone and standing and putting the rifle on/off. Silver Level athletes are working on “putting it all together” at local club races or BC Cups. May also have their own rifle.
- Gold Level (either Saturday afternoons or Wednesday afternoons) – Intended for biathletes that are looking to improve their race performance at local club races and BC Cups. Focus will be on higher level skills and race strategy. Most likely own their own rifle.
