programs. This will give the coaches the opportunity to work with
the athletes and put them into appropriate teams before the season
starts. All competitive snowboard programs will run for 8 weeks
starting Saturday, January 7th and ending with the Snowboard Club
Championships on the weekend of February 25th and 26th. The
option of New Years Camp is strongly recommended for these

ALPINE SKI CLUB FLOW CHART FOR RACING
Alpine Ski Club works closely with Alpine Canada Alpin and shares
the goal that we should strive to ensure that any child entering the
Alpine ski racing system is provided every opportunity to experience
the necessary building blocks in order to reach the desired highest
levels of the sport. Alpine Canada has produced a document titled
the “Alpine Integration Model”, known as “AIM”. As AIM is a well
known term in the ski racing community, the updated version; Long
Term Skier Development guide (LTSD) for Alpine ski racing will
be addressed as AIM2WIN. Although the primary objective of
AIM2WIN is to produce greater numbers of ski racers capable of
achieving at the highest level, it also provides a platform for clubs
and coaches to encourage and support participants at every level to
fulfill their potential and maintain a lifelong involvement in the sport
of alpine skiing. For more information on this document visit

k1 league
11 & 12 y rs.
Swiss Chalet K1 League
The League promotes the development of the fundamental skills
of ski racing both in a team environment and an individual series.
We will continue to offer the same format as the past season, which
includes an extended training component in the “All Inclusive”
training package being offered. Athletes hoping to qualify as part
of Alpine’s quota for the K1 All-Inclusive Individual Race Program
must be registered in this option.
Alpine Canada Alpin and the Canadian Ski Coaches Federation feel
it is imperative for these athletes to continue to learn and develop the
basic fundamental skills so technical emphasis will focus primarily
on the super slalom radius with good movement and changing
tempo. Exploration and exposure to slalom, giant slalom, speed and
ski cross elements will also occur as well as a higher intensity of
competition. Athletes will compete as team members throughout
the season with opportunities to qualify for K1 Individual Races
and Provincial Championships. For a few top performing Ontario
K1 athletes there will be an additional opportunity to compete
at International events such as the Whistler Cup or the Eastern
Can AM event in April. All K1 athletes, especially those wishing
to compete at the individual level are invited to attend the Copper
Mountain Fall Camp. This resort is known for great early season
conditions and caters to the needs of ski racers both on and off hill.
Take this opportunity to train with Alpine’s K2 athletes and other
top K1 athletes from the escarpment!
All athletes hoping to race in the K1 Individual Races MUST
participate in the October Fitness testing as outlined
by AOA and one of the two fall camps.
K1 Team Selection
When Alpine Ontario South is preparing the league race schedule
they make every effort to match teams of similar age and skiing
ability within any grouping. The goal is to ensure that the racing
experience affords all ski racers both the challenge and the
opportunity to enjoy personal success. Alpine Ontario South must
rely on each individual club to assess its teams prior to finalization of
the schedule to ensure that this goal is met. When we at Alpine Ski
Club select our K1 teams each year, we strive to put children together
of the same age, ability and commitment to racing, subject to the
AOA requirement that every team have a minimum of 3 members
of each sex on every team (normally 13 racers). Team selection is
done at the end of Christmas Camp. The athletes are marked on
coachabilty, technical ability and a timed run and then ranked and
split into teams. Our goal is to ensure that everyone can achieve their
best, experience success, and have fun.
Pre–Season Camps
The goal of pre-season camps is to rebuild the foundation of our
skiing, to instill and develop ski fundamentals through free skiing,
drills and drill courses as well as some gate training and video analysis.
Dryland, education and physical activities are a part of every day,
as well as some mental training, goal setting, and ski tuning. During
the school year, all racers are expected to complete their homework
assignments while attending camp and time is set aside every
afternoon for this purpose. Time management skills are critical to
success. We would like to encourage all K1 to take advantage of this
opportunity.

K1 Individual Races
Alpine Ontario K1 series races are additional races in which athletes
can qualify to race. The races are an additional cost of $35.00 per
start. These individual races are a great opportunity for the athletes
to test their skills against the region’s top athletes. A good idea for
those athletes aspiring to race K2 Individual. Alpine Ontario has
minimum requirements that must be met. The program is open to
anyone who meets the following requirements.
1. Time on snow is the most important. Therefore only athletes
who have participated in Pre-Season camps, October/Fall Fitness
Testing and Friday Training will have met the requirements for
the K1 Individual races. Racers must attend one of the fall camps;
Colorado in November or the December Sun Peaks Camp.
2. Alpine Ski Club has a club quota of 11 spots for the K1 Individual
races. In the event there are more athletes than spots, the final
decision on who will go to the race will be at the coach’s discretion.
The coach will consider technical acquisition, tactical acquisition
and attitude. Only athletes who participate in the K1 All Inclusive
program will be eligible for consideration.
The all inclusive program for K1 athletes includes all coaching costs,
Basic K1 program, Sun Peaks Camp, New Year’s Camp, March
Break Camp and all Friday Training. Not included in the cost are
race entry fees and travel costs after the Sun Peaks Camp.
Cost: $4,000, Early registration is required by August 1st.

At this age the individual athletes begin their high performance
training, through the K2 Individual Program. Training at this level
is a minimum 3 days per week season program. Second year K2’s
require a 4 day per week on-hill commitment. Fall Camps and Season
Camps are a component of this program. The proven elements
of every successful ski racer are effective coordination with their
academic endeavors, time on snow and physical and mental training.
Collingwood has a high concentration of ski racers and the shortest
number of days to ski of any place in the world. It becomes
imperative to spend time away skiing in order to stay competitive
with other provinces. Time spent away provides a variety of terrain
and an increased number of days on snow. The December Sun Peaks
Camp is the only mandatory camp, the rest are optional however we
strongly recommend attending one of the optional camps, Copper
Mountain Colorado in November and/or Mt. Hood, in July and/
or August.
K2 Team parents; If your son or daughter want to continue to race
in the team format there is a lesser commitment to training and time
on snow. This option is a less competitive environment that still
continues to develop strong technical skiing and racing skills.
