Officials Level 1 Training Registration

The Nordiq Canada Officials Level 1 Certification Course for cross country skiing provides an overview of what a cross country ski competition is all about. The focus is on the duties of minor officials for both "Olympic" style (interval start, pursuit start, mass start, relays and sprints) and "Loppet" style (mass participation) competitions. This is the first step towards becoming a Nordic
