Returning for the 2025/2026 season, the Midweek Momentum Program fills a crucial gap within the National Capital Division, offering a perfect bridge between recreational and competitive alpine skiing.

Program Details:

Schedule: Takes place Wednesday nights at Mount Pakenham, running for 11 weeks from 5:30 pm to 9:00 pm.

Step-Up Training: Designed as a progression from the Ottawa Sports Snow School, Nancy Green, and Clifford race programs, providing more focused and advanced training.

Small Group Training: Athletes train in small groups, typically maintaining a maximum 5:1 athlete-to-coach ratio, and sometimes even 3:1.

Age Requirements: Athletes must be 6 years old by December 31st, 2025 and cannot exceed 12 years old by December 31st, 2025. If you are under 6 but feel this program would be a good fit, we are always happy to consider young, ambitious skiers. We may ask for a video of them skiing as a prerequisite.

Three-Part Session: Each evening is divided into three focused training blocks:

• 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm: Athletes work on their skiing technique, including short turns, early edge initiation, long turns, mastering the outside ski, and gaining a feel for speed.

• 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm: Training in brushies and stubbies set by our coaches, helping athletes get a feel for racing and understanding the dynamics of gate skiing. Towards the end of the season, they may have the chance to ski in mini gates.

• 8:00 pm to 9:00 pm: The evening concludes with further ski development, focusing on skills that need improvement based on the previous gate training session, ensuring well-rounded and proficient skiers.

Program Benefits:

Advanced Coaching: Athletes receive higher-end coaching and more focused skill development, tailored to their individual needs.

Intro to Competitive Racing: Provides a solid introduction to competitive racing, with courses set to Alpine Ontario standards, making it an excellent stepping stone for future competitive racers.

Cost-Effective: This program is a more affordable alternative to our full competitive race programs, making it accessible for a wider range of athletes.

Conclusion:

The Midweek Momentum Program is ideal for young athletes looking to advance from the Ottawa Sports Snow School or entry-level racing programs. With high-quality coaching, small group sizes, and a structured training schedule, this program offers a comprehensive introduction to competitive racing and advanced skill development. Join us to take your skiing to the next level in a supportive and focused environment.
