Why I Coach with the Calgary Ski Club

• Cross country skiing is part of my lifestyle and as a coach and athlete; I want to pass on my knowledge of the sport to guide athletes of all ages in perfecting their skills, achieving peak physical fitness and mental focus.
• It is rewarding to assist Champions and Masters skiers in having fun at training sessions and encouraging winning attitudes in goal setting, event preparation and racing.
• The Club has introduced me to great friends and there is a camaraderie with fellow skiers that is enjoyed year round through our many events and activities. I invite you to join us!
