Discover the thrill of ski racing

Has your child achieved their Étoile d'Or and is ready for a new challenge? The Competition Programme is the perfect introduction to the world of ski racing, combining expert coaching, technical development and plenty of fun alongside other enthusiastic young skiers.

Guided by specialist esf instructors, they'll refine their technique across a variety of terrain and snow conditions while training in slalom, ski cross, snowpark and technical skiing, all in a safe and supportive environment.

The programme also includes the opportunity to take the Flèche and Chamois timed tests, allowing young skiers to measure their progress and experience the excitement of racing against the clock.
