So much has been happening over the past few weeks with the the Spring Breck Camp coming to a close, snow falling on the mountains here in Australia and the annual Ski and Snowboard Australia Awards.
With the Breck camp finished up our Australian office is now open. Feel free to call if you have any queries, our newsletter will be emailed out shortly with news of trampoline training and our annual movie premiere dates.
With the SSA awards now over we are proud to announce Head Snowboard Coach Jarrod Wouters was nominated for Development Coach of the Year for Snowboard. Jarrod was up against all the other diciplines development coaches and was just beaten out by the NSWIS Mogul Coach. Congratulations Jarrod! The good news dosen't end there, he has also just been appointed as the Junior World Championships Slopestyle Coach for Australia to coach a strong team of riders in New Zealand later this year. Including our own Nick Wood, Lauren Staveley, Michaela Davis Meehan and Tim Laidlaw who made the team along with Olympian Scotty James, Nate Johnstone, and up and coming snowboarder NSW athlete Billy Hayman. Stay tuned for Junior Worlds in late August in NZ...
Applications are now coming in with a bunch of new faces which we can't wait to meet. Along with new campers we will also have some new coaching staff. We will be welcoming Will Harris from Wanka NZ to our coaching team. He will also be running our mid week on snow program. Will has represented NZ on World Cup and is a qualified coach and instructor who has previously worked at Cardrona Resort. We will also be welcoming Nick Reichstein back to the fold, Nick worked with us a few years back and brings a Level 3 Snowboard Cert to the table and is also a qualified snowboard judge. Nick works in Beaver Creek in the Northern Season and brings years of coaching experience to the team.
Along with head coach Jarrod Wouters we also welcome local intructor/coach Tom Richardson as our rookie coach, Tom works in Silver Star in the Northern Season. |
