Junior Team
The mountains to sound junior ski team
December to March
The Momentum Northwest Junior Team program is geared toward skiers who love to zoom! Winter practice includes many days on snow, as well as some dry-land practices, including running, trail running, hiking, and strength. When attending races and optional camps, skiers have the opportunity to travel to premiere ski destinations. Our skiers and ski families truly develop an appreciation of nordic skiing and the wonderful natural places we visit as a result.
The focus of the Junior Team program is to strike a balance between excellent team culture and skiing fundamentals, creating an approachable, fun, and healthy ski team. We believe this formula is the recipe for success on the course and a lifetime of skiing. Our coaches are training to teach young skiers how to set goals and work towards those goals on and off the race course. Ski racing is foundational to our programming and the backdrop for the why we love this sport; however, ski racing is not a requirement for participation.
The Junior Team program meets 4-5 days per week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday, plus occasional Fridays as part of a weekend race). Practices on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday occur on snow, mostly at Snoqualmie Pass (van transportation is available). Practices on Tuesday are dryland practices in locations around the Seattle area. In addition to full-time training, we also offer a 2-day-per-week winter program for skiers who want to stay in the sport but have other obligations throughout the season. This program joins our regular practices on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
We use Spond to manage attendance, workout location and details, and other important, timely communication. Participants and parents need to add the Spond app to their devices in order to be in the loop.
Fees:
Full-time Junior Team: $2,200
2-days per week: $1,600
