| Development and Gift of Skiing/Snowboarding: | |
| The Gift of Skiing/Snowboarding Program is our entry level and introductory league for both skiing and snowboarding. Taking athletes as young as 6 years old, this team focuses on the basics of skiing and snowboarding. You must be able to ski or snowboard at this point, as it is not a first-timers team. Gift of Skiing teams train once a week or once every other week depending upon the level. This is the most affordable and progressive ski and snowboard program in the west. |

Auburn Ski Club is dedicated to keeping athletes involved in ski racing at all levels. Developing athletes at a younger age, building basic skills, and focusing on healthy philosophies ensure the commitment to this effort. Our Development Team trains primarily to build growth as a skier and to introduce athletes to ski racing and freestyle or freeride. The Development Team develops skills through guided free-skiing and drill progression over 60% of the time on snow. Other time is spent in video analysis, gate training, and racing Tahoe League. The Freeride/Freestyle Development program will develop skills similarly, though specific skills will be developed in the half-pipe, in the park, and on big mountain terrain. The Development Team is also invited to specific training sessions after school, mid-week, throughout the season. This team trains Saturday and Sundays primarily at Boreal Mountain Resort, and specific free-ski days at Alpine Meadows. |
