Winter Support Program Get support all winter at Junior Olympic Quaiflers, Sections and State. Minnesota Valley coaches witll wax your skis, give you splits and make sure your racing preparation at the weekend races is perfect. Minnesota Valley brings a coach along for every ten kids who attend the weekend races. All competition team athletes get this service for free. Includes coverage at all six JOQ's, Senior and Junior Nationals. Includes all kick wax and any race day top coats on glide wax. We do not make any money on this program, we just cover our coaching (housing, food and transport) and waxing expenses. December 1 - March 15 2008 $80, one JOQ weekend fee $25. The Minnesota Valley Competition Team offers an advanced summer/fall program for juniors who want to be competitive on a national (and eventually international) level. The competition team will train with MN Valley coaches five days per week in the summer and the fall. Skiers on the competition team must set lofty goals (i.e: medaling at Junior Nationals, winning state, making the Junior National team or making All-State). Competition team will train with our sister club White Noise Nordic two days a week. The competition team will focus on more intense training with speed/hard days a regular part of the weekly schedule. Competition Team members will meet one-on-one with Reid to discuss their training, goals and review their training logs (required). Each team member will begin a yearly training plan, customized for each individual. The competition team will train with MN Valley through the fall until the start of their high school nordic ski season. Competition team members are required to ski the Junior Olympics qualifying series. Summer Schedule Fall Schedule: Cost: $1200 Dates: June 16 - March 2008. We take a two week break in August.

Did you enjoy the summer program? Got a lot of training in, along with some good technique work? Well don’t lose your base in the fall. The best way to have a successful ski season is to continue to work on your base endurance, ski specific speed ski technique and ski strength though the fall. In the fall weekday program we do this with a balance of long ski and running workouts, and we begin to tune up for the season with ski specific intervals. We’ll ski, pole hike, and tear apart your technique. Of course it being a Minnesota Valley program there is the outside chance there will be a game day every so often. This is the best way to prepare for a great winter ski season. Limited to 15 skiers. Meet at Hyland at 3:00 pm. Kids with late dismissal will start at 3:30 pm. This program is also open to skiers who did not participate in the summer program. September 8– October 31. Cost $425 Fall Advanced Program The fall adanced program adds two more training days to the basic program. We ski with the Competition team on Tuesdays and the Sunday program on the weekend. The off day on Thursday allows us to schedule an on your own longer training day for Saturday. Shorter days and the end of daylight savings make long workouts harder to comeby as we approach the ski season. Reid coaches this program. September 8– October 31. Cost $675 Fall Sunday program This is for the runners, swimmers, volleyball and soccer players, and the skiers who just want another workout. Split up between distance workouts and technique work, this is the perfect way for multi sport athletes to keep in contact with their skiing through your fall season. As you head into your fall sports it is easy to put skiing on the back burner. But you can lose muscle memory and technique over the fall! Since it is vital that you ski some in the fall, this is your opportunity to do so with some of the best coaches around. We’ll sometimes use the trails at Elm Creek. They are fabulous, one loop takes 1:30 over 18 miles of trails. We will also use the new Cedar Lake trails which take you around Minneapolis, as well as our great home base of Hyland. Lara and Mike will coach on Sunday. Limited to 20 skiers. September 14 - November 2. Cost $150 - All participants need rollerskis for classic and skating or a combi rollerski before the first practice. I only ski on Marwee and think that all the skiers should be either on Marwee Combi's (perfect for beginners) or Marwee Skates (great as a second pair of skis for advanced skiers) - Get registration in early, last year we filled basic program in March. - Registrations are due by June15 and must include full payment.
