U14

The U14 program continues consolidating overall skiing and racing skills with an introduction to performance on demand, following the Long Term Athlete Development Plan and Strive Program.

This age group will participate in 4 races in the Southern Ontario Division. A typical race day is 6 hours long and generally ends around 2:00pm. On race weekends, U14 athletes will have training on the opposite day of the race.

Skiers entering the U14 program must be one of the following:

• Be an exceptional recreational parallel skier that is confident on a variety of terrain and snow conditions, and comfortable skiing with speed
• Have successfully completed Advanced-1 (A1) in the Chicopee Snow School programs
• Graduates of the U12 program

Per Alpine Ontario regulations, program participants must be a Chicopee Member for the applicable race season and are required to wear a hard eared helmet with an FIS label affixed at the back.

Equipment strongly recommended for racers includes slalom and giant slalom event specific skis, back protectors for speed races, and slalom gear for clearing gates.

U14 SCUP athletes are required to register through AOA. Alpine Ontario registration includes access to the Strive program, invitational races and ski events.
