Athletes on hand were Bear, Jacko, LyZee, and Mad Max; coaches were Trey and Lauren. The enthusiasm the J6's brought to the hill gives a lot to look forward to as the season progresses and our ranks fill up. Stay tuned to this link for updates, recaps and schedules. Hopefully a picture or two as well. See you soon.

JV Ages 8-10
Although the J5 program has a competition component, the season's emphasis is on mileage in all terrain and in all (yes, all) conditions while stressing fundamentals and giving the athlete a solid technical foundation of skills. This helps create a versatile skier who can respond well to the variables that create so many challenges in a race course.

Each season offers an average of 9-10 opportunities to race in both the Southern Vermont Council series which takes place at a number of areas in SW Vermont and the Fred Pabst Series held here at Bromley. Participation in as many training days as possible as well as races is encouraged because because ski racing can be a lot of FUN!

The emphasis will be on fun, with a lot of freeskiing as well as a strong component of gate training introduced to the program as the season and skills levels evolve. Any athlete who wants to work after the regular session will always be able to find a coach to ski with. Parents are encouraged to
tag up with the head coach anytime with questions or concerns.

JV Ages 11-12
JIV's will be introduced to a higher level of racing techniques while maintaining an emphasis on directed free skiing. This age group will also participate in the Fred Pabst Series, but also have the option to travel to the Betty Clayton and Southern Vermont Junior Council Race Series. A schedule will be provided for those racers that may be interested. 

JIII Ages 13-14
