Hey Guys, so excited to be joining you all for an awesome few days for the development camp this July! Can’t wait to share some of my knowledge with you all and get to meet some of the next gen in New Zealand skiing!! See you soon.

Alice Robinson

The Snow Sports New Zealand Alpine Youth Tech Camp 2024 supported by Oyster Capital is taking place from July 24th-26th at Coronet Peak with the attendance of NZL World Cup athlete Alice Robinson and her coaching team of Nils Coberger and Tim Cafe.

Alice and her team will work with selected YOB 2011, 2010 and 2009 SSNZ Youth National Points athletes for the first two days of the camp. This camp will focus on foundational skills development for those who have shown significant achievement as National Points events during the 2023 season. There will be a full schedule of off-snow activities and seminars introducing our young athletes to important development related subjects such as athlete wellness, mental skills, nutrition and more.

This is a tremendous opportunity for young New Zealand Alpine athletes at the start of the development pathway. Snow Sports New Zealand would like to thank Snowvision Foundation, the official NZSki resorts partners, Coronet Peak and Mt Hutt for their ongoing support for Alpine Ski Racing in New Zealand and the provision of training lanes and facilities for this camp.

If you have any questions, please contact Erin McNary SSNZ Alpine Operations Manager at [email protected]
