Ben Eoin Ski Team
BEST is a racing program for children who use all lifts and have experience on all our trails. Each child’s progress is tracked upon entry to completion of the program.
This gives each child, along with their parents and coaching staff, a step-by-step detail of progression followed by a set of skills and drills for the child to practice.
The program is run by CSCF coaches who will focus on skills such as control and maintaining speed, turning through race gates, mental and physical awareness of skiing, and maintenance of equipment.
If your child is interested in competitive ski racing and being part of the team, please contact [email protected]
