Camp 1 of the season is done and the season is underway!  Limited coverage at the western ski areas has made training limited for everyone.  Teams from all over North America have been fighting for space at the western venues that have snow.  Nakiska is hosting most of the World Cup teams from everywhere in preparation for the Copper Mtn World Cup events.  This has pushed International, Provincial and club teams to later sessions in the day or forced those teams to create alternate plans of training, primarily technical free skiing.

Pierre Ruel will be joining us to discuss new information on the STRIVE app and skill development.  Other information will be presented on the Manitoba Winter Games, the Canada Winter Games, and any new updates to rules.  This will be an in-person event at the Sport MB Theatre on Tuesday November 25th starting at 6:00 pm.  Education and Risk Management credits will be received.

The Manitoba Winter Games in Thompson is fast approaching and athletes need Coaches and Managers!  Each Regional Team requires male and female coaches and/or managers.  The Manitoba Winter Games will be held from March 1-4 inclusive in Thompson.
