  The Team AVSC Nordic programs are designed further the development of the student athlete in all aspects of the sport. In addition to skill and fitness improvement, participants will learn the importance of goal setting, teamwork, discipline, and time management, all of which are essential for continued improvement.

Opportunities to travel to camps and competitions will be available to both programs. All Team level XC and Nordic Combined skiers will receive a team race suit, jacket, and warm-up pants for use during the season. A Rocky Mountain Nordic membership is required for the XC programs. The Team level Jumping and Nordic Combined programs are designed to teach proper ski jumping technique and form utilizing both dryland and on-snow training. Nordic Combined combines ski jumping and cross-country skiing. Athlete will have the opportunity to travel to camps and competitions in Steamboat and Park City.

Nordic Comp Team - XC Register Now! Comp Team-XC is a competition-oriented program focused on bringing out the best in the skier, no matter what their skill level. Comp Team is more than just an extra two days of training each week; Comp Team members will receive more intense coaching and be expected to challenge and improve themselves in physical conditioning, ski technique, race results, and teamwork. Although this is a competition-oriented program, competition should not be viewed as an end to itself, but rather as an avenue to challenge the athlete and as a tool to measure improvement. Recommended for all skiers age class J2 and older.
