Overview
The Prep Team is designed to continue the age-appropriate development of our athletes. The team is defined by excitement, development of athletic insights, which pair with the onset of biological maturity. The winter commitment moves to three days per week, along with the opportunity for a more robust competition calendar. Athletes on the Prep Team will have the chance to see new places, meet new teams, and expand their friend base to include athletes throughout the Intermountain West.
Prep team skiers train in both classic and skate techniques and have the option to participate in dryland and on-snow training camps. Whether beginner or returning athletes, all levels of ski ability are welcome.
SVSEF has transportation options available to and from regular M/W/F Prep practices.
Transportation questions should be directed to kelley@svsef.org.
