Ski Race D Team - Registration is Full
The mission of the Trollhaugen D-Team is providing a safe and fun learning environment for kids from 6 to 18 years old, to develop fundamental skiing skills. We use the US Ski Team and PSIA developed, SkillsQuest program and US Ski Team training techniques to drive the learning process. This is the same program used by Gold medalists Ted Ligety and Mikaela Shiffrin. Learn more about SkillsQuest at http://ussa.org/alpine-programs/athletes/development/skillsquest/why-skillsquest and why Trollhaugen D-Team implements this program to help develop skiers.
The D-Team’s weekly, skill-focused training offers great coach to skier ratios which leads to focused attention and individual skill growth. We use directed free skiing, skill-specific skiing drills, skill-based training environments as well as sectional and full course sets for a well rounded approach. The end result are skiers that have lots of fun while improving ski skills they use for the rest of their lives.
The program consists of six Saturday or Sunday training sessions and four Saturday or Sunday races for a total of ten Saturdays or Sundays. Our coaching staff from Trollhaugen ski school are trained, experienced skiers and racers and love to help kids improve their skiing through racing. All the coaches have extensive personal racing backgrounds and continue to race in adult programs.
This is a race program to develop technique and race/ski skills, not a program for first time skiers. For any questions please feel free to contact us at 715-755-2955 x223
