Grizzly/Polar Bears

ABOUT

The Grizzly/Polar Bears program is for athletes 10-13 years old who have biathlon experience and wish to continue building basic biathlon skills. Athletes are invited (but not required) to compete in local races organized by the club.

Chelsea Nordiq will provide laser rifles for this group to train on.

The building of biathlon skills will take place in weekly training sessions starting late-September and ending mid-March. Training sessions will run Sunday afternoons.

Athletes are expected to be able to skate ski and should be registered in a ski training group either within Chelsea Nordiq or another ski club.

Please Note: Grizzly and Polar Bears are the same program, they are simply in two different time slots to allow greater participation.  Please register for the time slot that suits you best.
