Skill Development Program
The Skill Development Program is divided into several stages:
Bunnyrabbit Program:
The Bunnyrabbit Program is directed at children in the “Active Start” stage of
athlete development (children 5 years of age and younger). It is a fun, skill
development program designed to introduce children to the sport of cross
country skiing and the healthy lifestyle associated with it. Parents are
encouraged to come and ski with their child during lessons.
Jackrabbit Program:
The Jackrabbit Program is directed at skiers in the “FUNdamentals” stage of
athlete development (children 6 to 9 years of age). It is a fun, skill development
program where the objective is for participants to learn basic cross country ski
skills (both classic and skating) and to instill a lifelong interest in the sport.
Children in this program will have the opportunity to work on techniques towards
4 Technique Awards. As well, they will be able to earn Snow Goals (time spent
skiing outside of lesson time and Sprint Awards (timed sprints after technique
lessons).
Track Attack Program:
The Track Attack Program is directed at skiers in the “Learn to Train” stage of
athlete development (skiers 10 to 12 years of age). The objective of the program
is for the participants to become technically competent cross country skiers and
to use those skills to explore a wide range of cross country ski activities from
back country excursions to Ski Tournaments and other competitions.
