Come train with the Jackson Hole Ski & Snowboard Club's Nordic Team in the Tetons!  We offer high-level training opportunities for high school graduates looking to train ahead of their first year of collegiate competition and for collegiate skiers to train during their summer break from school.  Training will dovetail with the existing JHSC Comp team practices and will utilize all of our club amenities including: Trail Creek Nordic Center for running and bounding, Snow King weight room for strength training, transportation provided for remote training days, and summer camp opportunities.  Most sessions take place either on the extensive network of bike paths in the Jackson Hole valley or in the mountains in and around Jackson.  Weekly and monthly training plans will be issued by coaching staff and modified to suit each individual athlete based on personal needs and training volume.

Equipment Recommendations 

PG Team athletes work closely with their coaches for equipment and ski selection. Athletes need at least one pair of classic and skate race skis as well as one pair of skate and classic warm-up/practice skis. 

The JHSC Nordic program offers a lease program for Prep Team athletes. For $140 for the season, athletes can lease top of the line Salomon S-Lab skate and classic race skis.  We offer this program for the Prep Team Families to help keep good skis affordable while atheltes are growing fast.

Athletes have the option of borrowing roller skis from the club during the summer months, but are encouraged to purchase their own skate and classic roller skis.

Academic Support and Early Release Program 

Athletes are enrolled in their school's early release program to attend training on time. 

Jackson Hole Ski & Snowboard Club staff works closely with the local schools to further develop the Early-Release Program for each academic year and summer programs. The Club and local schools are highly motivated to create educational program options for students that enable them to maintain a rigorous academic schedule while supporting athletic growth and development.  Learn more.
