Coaching courses enhance the enjoyment of our sport – even if you don’t intend to coach or assist in a formal capacity. Whether you’re a parent who’s looking to pick up a few tricks to raise lifelong skiers, a grandparent who wants to become more involved in assisting club programs, or a competitive skier interested in coaching the next generation of racers – NCCP is your first step. Our technically skilled coaches form the backbone of our engaging youth lessons, adult classes, and competitive provincial team program. Newly certified coaches are always welcome, become a part of it!
