Thank you to everyone who participated in our member survey this year.  We received some EXCELLENT feedback and comments.  Your input will help continue to guide the club in our efforts to make VSC the best club in the province!

Some highlights of our planning for next year are as follows: 

Our Program Directors mandate for next season is:

Formulate and implement a seamless transition plan from Snow Mites through J/FIS programs and ensure that the learning objectives at each level are clear to coaches, athletes and parents. 

Integrate and unify athletes, coaches and parents to develop competitive skiers that have a life long passion for skiing

Work through mutual cooperation and respect at all levels of the organization. 

Some specific items being addressed include:

Re-evaluating the structure of our Snow Mites program and ensuring that the program objectives and coaching structure is appropriate.

Evaluating the opportunity to gain more time on snow for the 9 and 10 year olds in the 1-day Entry Program.

Providing enhanced dry land training and physical testing opportunities for athletes aged 10 and up. 

Establish a more clearly defined education structure for coaches at all levels and ensure that they are provided every reasonable opportunity to pursue continuing education.

Closely monitor coaching techniques and outcomes and respond to the need for continuous improvement.

Continue to open the lines of communication between members at all levels of the program. 

We are still finalizing our coaching needs for next season, but we anticipate having a great team in place for the fall.
