Ski MK Race Team will be running a series of four day race camps during the summer holidays and this is your chance to get involved.

Ski MK was founded in 2000, and was the UK's first ski racing club to train regularly on indoor snow. The team provides quality coaching, led by Olympian Ross Green, and an opportunity to train on indoor snow on the longest slope in Southern England.

The club aims to develop ski racers of all ages and experience, with the age range of racers spans over 50 years, while many of the country's top young ski racers, including several national age group champions, have been attracted to the slope.

Ski MK will be running three different types of camps:

Learn to Race Camps - this is aimed at people who can ski confidently, but may not have done any racing, or have limited race experience. The aim of the week will be to develop technique and introduce people to skiing gates. Afternoons will be a mixture of fun activities away from the slope.

Advanced Race Camp - these camps are aimed at the more experience racer who are familiar with skiing gates. These weeks have been timed to link up with the indoor race programme and will develop race technique. The afternoons will be dry land fitness training.

Ski/boarder cross - using berms, kickers and rollers this will be a fun filled week where you will learn the skills of ski and boarder cross this will include developing jumping, racing a course and general skill development. The afternoons will include a variety of activities away from the slope.

Camps will start at 8.30am (8am for the Advanced Race Camps). There will be breaks with snack and a drink, lunch will be provided for those choosing to stay for the whole day, followed by activities in the afternoon which will finish at 4pm. Video analysis may be used and each week will finish with a race.

People can choose whole weeks (4 days), or individual days, with half days (slope time only and no lunch) as an option. To find out the costs and dates of the camps, look at the resource below. Limited places are available so you are urged to book by 26th June.
