Just like the Olympic Motto "Citius, Altius, Fortius", the Altius Nordic Ski Club strives for its athletes to be "Faster, Higher, Stronger".
The Nordic Ski Hoppers program is geared towards “FUN and FUNDAMENTALS”. Participants are exposed to a broad range of sports and activities and cross training, including each of the Nordic disciplines. A supportive and positive environment is provided for all participants, with an emphasis on participation.
The Altius focus highlights overall physical development, enhances healthy lifestyles and leadership abilities in each participant. It also provides the base and introduces an opportunity for long-term athlete development in the sports of Ski Jumping and Nordic Combined skiing.
Congratulations to brand new K-63m hill jumpers whom jumped today for the first time. Brenna Lalonde, Max Stretch and Sammy Bolton (second time on K-63). It is a big step up and a long way down. We, coaches and parents, are proud of you. Way to Go Team! As well as this week a few athletes first jumped the K-38m hill. Congratulations to Sophie Berghmans, Katie Stillwell, Daniel Nieven, Daniel Kemp, Ben Hopkins, Cory Rogans. What an amazing week!
