PRACTICE CONCEPT:
Practice will always have a group chat and game and snack, followed by getting with your smaller animal groups and working on the skill of the practice or getting after the adventure ski! We will always end with a chat and coco. Teams are important, they keep athletes engaged. We will continue to push the team while working on individual skier development within their smaller groups.
