PROGRAM DESCRIPTION :

Longer Description of the program: The Track Attack Program, which is directed at skiers in the “Learning to Train” stage of development (skiers 9 to 12), is the third level of the nordic program. The objective is for the participants to become technically competent cross-country skiers, and to use their skills to explore a wide range of cross-country ski activities. In addition, it is designed to:

• Develop fitness through active play, games and other activities.

• Provide children an opportunity to be part of a sport “team”.

• Develop competence in cross-country ski skills.

• Expose children to a variety of “adventure-based” cross-country ski activities and perhaps their first race.
