**NEW** From March 2024 – SASA will now be running Race training on a Sunday between 09:30 and 11:30 fortnightly at Southampton Alpine Centre.

Bookings can be made here SASA SKI SUNDAY BOOKINGS

SASA Training Days

The club runs training days a couple of times a year,  usually in spring and early autumn to coincide with the races that SASA organises.  These take place at the Alpine Centre and run from approximately 09:30 – 16:00.  Training is both on and off hill,  to give trainees a taster of importance of non skiing fitness to help improve their skiing.   We will send details of upcoming training days out to all members.  We will also advertise dates and details in the News section of the website and on our Facebook page.

Race Training Camp – Landgraaf – Oct 2024 – Watch this space

We’re delighted to announce that we’re returning to Landgraaf in October 2024! and we are now taking bookings.

This is the provisional itinerary for the week.  Session times will be confirmed closer to the camp dates.

INLIERS:

• • Athlete- shared room, breakfast/lunch/dinner, liftpass, on and off hill training, use of on site gym
  • Parents/others – shared room, breakfast/lunch/dinner, liftpass, use of gym

• • Training and liftpass (no meals)

For those who want to stay off-site,  there are a number of accommodation options near Snowworld that trainees have used in the past – if you would like any information,  please contact chair@skisasa.co.uk

Coaches / Pastoral Care

Pastoral care and coaches will be announced at a later date and will depend on the number of trainees.  Unfortunately,  we cannot accommodate unaccompanied under 16s,   but racers can attend with other parents as long as they have written authority that they are in the care of those parents and are NOT SASA’s responsibility.  Please contact chair@skisasa.co.uk for more information.

Payment is in three stages:

• • £100pp Initial Deposit due immediately to secure place
  • £250pp Second instalment of due by 1st August 2024
  • Final Balance payable in full by 15 September 2024

We prefer to have the deposit paid directly into the SASA bank account to avoid transaction charges on instant payments.

All balances should be paid to the SASA bank account.

Registration

To pay the deposit into the bank account,  rather than instant payment option, choose the invoice option at checkout.

Training is not just for the junior members of the family,  and we welcome many “Masters” each year.  Most of the Masters had no prior racing experience,  so if you fancy trying it out but are unsure as to whether to take the plunge,  have a word with one of the committee or any of the racers from  our previous Landgraaf or Piani camps.
