Training Camps: 

A critical component of athlete and regional skier development. NNF supports training camps for athletes across the country.

Camps help:

• Introduce young athletes to their peers from ski communities across the country.
• Create an inclusive training environment at the elite level.
• Connect athletes to inspiring coaches, and the cutting edge training methods they know best.
• Provide chances for athletes to have meaningful experiences in the places that make US skiing special – from Craftsbury, VT, Cable, WI, Soldier Hollow, UT, to Kincaid Park, AK, – and everywhere in between.
• Create a collaborative environment for athletes and coaches to share knowledge and a passion for skiing.
