FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Skicraft Registration Reopened

The high school season is nearly over. Do you want to keep skiing and improve your fitness and technique?

Minnesota Youth Ski League has reopened registration for our program Skicraft. Come join us until the snow melts!

Skicraft is a race-specific program for juniors.

Skicraft is designed to not apply pressure for immediate success, but allow for individuals to develop over time through a continuous process of education, evaluation, and goal setting. We are focused on a "whole person" approach and are committed to creating an atmosphere for all skiers to thrive.

Skicraft training sessions occur Monday and Thursday evenings from 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm at Wirth and Saturdays at 10:30 am at various metro sites. Skiers are also encouraged to attend MYSL Team Sprints and Family Nights on Wednesday evenings. This is a low-key way to practice racing. Skicraft coaches will also provide professional race support at the Loppet CXC Youth Cup JQ.

Coaches Simon Stouffer and Corey Coogan Cisek are both U.S. Ski & Snowboard certified and have racing backgrounds, having competed collegiate D1 and professionally.
