*************************************************************************************************************
Welcome to The Ski Racing Sisterhood where Olympians Anna Goodman and Shona Rubens host and coach elite summer ski camps for girls.
For girls by girls.
Skiing fast is more fun with your friends! The Ski Racing Sisterhood aims to provide a female empowered atmosphere where girls ages 13-16 take their slalom and giant slalom ski racing skills to the next level. While at camp participants will lead an active and healthy lifestyle, make friends from all over the world and get stoked and inspired for next season.
Our camp is the perfect opportunity to get extra summer training before the school year starts up again. We realize that many teams have set summer camps, but The Ski Racing Sisterhood camps are not only an amazing opportunity to get more time on snow and learn from the best, but also a camp that revolves around female empowerment, healthy living and a fun and active lifestyle.
Have fun, make friends, ski fast! Join us in Whistler!
Who: U16 (13 to 16 year old) girls from all over the world (consideration will be given to mature younger racers and first year FIS). Must be part of a ski racing club. The camp will focus on the kinds of things that elite 13 to 16 year old racers will need to continue their success. In order to keep the athlete-coach ratio high we will only accept 16 girls per camp on a first come – first serve basis.
When: SESSION 1: July 2nd -11th SESSION 2: July 14th-23rd

Why: Because it will be awesome. Who doesn’t want to shred in the summer?!
