Junior Freestyle Coaching - Autumn Block

Snow Factor Freestyle will start back again for the 3nd block of the year from Saturday 19th August 2017. This block will be a 7 week block. The coaching block will be open to children aged 12-15 years old and will be for both skiing and snowboarding. (We will also accept under 11s subject to ability level)
If your child is comfortably able to ski or board down our entire main slope and has attempted one or two freestyle features then this is the next stage for them. This block of 7 sessions is designed to introduce children to the use of freestyle features and to start working on improving their tricks and style while having fun.

The Programme
Class Size
There will be a maximum ratio of 7 children to 1 coach for both Skiing and Snowboarding.
Slope Features
There will be at least 2 freestyle features out on the slope each week for the groups to use. These features will be small in size and dictated by the park plan from earlier in the week. The features may differ from week to week although they will always be of a similar level to a Small Kicker (Jump) + Flat box or Roller + Flat-Down Box
Coaching
The coaching team consists of fully qualified freestyle coaches. There will be one coach per group each week. The coaches will not always be working with the same groups every week and will move around.
The groups may not always be working on the features as some times it will be more beneficial to work on the slope instead.
Feedback
Coaching is different to instructing. The Snow Factor coaches will seek to encourage more student input than on lessons and will focus on working together with each student to achieve agreed individual goals for the block. There may be weeks where individual students receive less feedback from the coach because there is seen to be more benefit from personal practise. The coaches will be filling in report cards to detail what is being worked on over the 7 weeks.
