Hello Skiers, welcome to Team Snowtrax
Team Snowtrax is an independent club within Snowtrax centre. At Team Snowtrax our prime function is to primarily introduce ski racing to young and older people and promote Snowsports in all of its forms to the club.
Our coaching staff are skiers who have over 70 years skiing experience, having a mixture of Qualifications via Snowsports England and BASI. We are bringing through some of our top racers to the coaching staff, as they are the future of the club.
Some of our racers have gone on to be instructors themselves with George Schmidt and Lewis Moore having just completed their BASI level 2 qualifications, Lewis Cluett having now obtained his BASI 1 and many more qualifications throughout the instructors, along with Freestyle and coaching qualifications. This makes them well qualified to continue the coaching at the club in the years to come. Freddie Otton has just recently come onto the coaching staff and currently is just starting her coaching career.
Team Snowtrax remains one of the most successful clubs in the region despite having one of the shortest slopes. This success is mainly due to the style of coaching within the club and the support of the parents and volunteers on race days. This is all done in a fairly relaxed atmosphere with fun being paramount.
Over the years we have seen a few of our skiers become well known on the ski circuit. Luke Potts who is currently one of the top Extreme skiers in the world learnt to ski at the race club and used to be one of our top racers.
During the race season our prime interest at Snowtrax Ski Racers is indeed Ski Racing. We then do freestyle session in between seasons and then lead onto the foundation stage.
Our session times are as follows:
Wednesday 6.30 to 8.00pm
Saturday 8.30 to 10.00am
If any existing or potential new members have any questions about training or membership, please do not hesitate to contact any of the coaches or committee members at the club during the above session times or read the additional coaching detail available on the website.
Regards
David Carpenter (Chairman, Team Snowtrax)
