*Disclaimer: For all Nancy Greene Mountain camps/races, we provide a specific number of coaches based on the assumption that athletes are both confident and competent skiers. If your athlete does not meet the minimum technical requirements, is unable to keep up with the group, or if there is an issue with athlete behaviour and attitude, parents are required to be on standby to assist coaches on snow full-time in handling their athlete during morning and afternoon training sessions.

In extreme circumstances (and at the discretion of the Head Coach or Program Director), an athlete may no longer be permitted to participate further in the camp/race. In these instances, parents understand that their athlete is barred from further participation. Snow Valley Racing will provide a credit for the days the athlete will no longer be attending (not including the day they are removed from the camp/race).
