Athlete Entitlements
Are you asking yourself the question “why should I register with Northern Ski Team” ?
Read below to see what we have to offer…
at Snowplanet:
- School term training – Wednesday evenings
Northern Ski Team coaches will be on-snow coaching during Wednesday night race training sessions. - Exclusive NST weekend training
Eligibility to register for weekend Northern Ski Team training programmes that are exclusive to registered athletes. - Exclusive NST ‘special’ camps
Athletes will be eligible to register for exclusive Northern Ski Team training camps throughout the year at Snowplanet. These camps might include school holiday training camps or early morning training camps (in the early hours before the facility opens to the general public). - Team prize-giving and social events
In term 4, at the conclusion of the 2024 New Zealand winter season, we will hold our inaugural team prize-giving and celebration. This event will be held at an Auckland venue as voted by our athletes and their families.
across New Zealand:
- Mt Ruapehu training & race events
We are pleased to have the approval of Ruapehu to run team training camps on the mountain, which will incorporate plenty of training drills and time to work on technique. - South Island training & race events
The July School Holidays will see us return to Queenstown for a 3-week camp where we primarily train in race lanes at The Remarkables. The camp includes representation at race events, including Coronet Peak Junior Interfield and the National Primary School Championships (competing as individual athletes).
See full information here. - Chaperone opportunities
Do you want to give your child the experience of joining us on ski race camps… but you’re not able to join us yourself? We may be able to help out. We’ll have room to chaperone approximately 4 x athletes for each trip away from Auckland. Although each trip may vary, we expect the cost to be approximately $150 per night (including transport and accommodation). Each chaperone arrangement requires the approval of the Northern Ski Team executive committee.
and around the world:
- Training & race events
January (& potentially April) each year will see us visit the slopes of Canada, as we trade-off the New Zealand sun for unparalleled time in dedicated Northern Ski Team race lanes in one of the most renowned ski race resorts in the Northern Hemisphere.
