‘Athlete of the Future Moguls Development’ Camp
2012 marks our camps 5th year and we are pleased to announced Peter Milliken a past camp participant has been offered a NSWIS scholarship with NSWIS / SSA National Freestyle Moguls program. Congratulations Peter.
The ‘Athlete of the Future Moguls Development’ camp is now under the banner of Ski and
Snowboard Australia’s Futures camp programs. The camp will now be named SSA Futures, ‘Athlete of the Future’ Moguls Development camp. SSA Futures camps provide opportunities to young athletes in their pathway to becoming an elite athlete. SSA Futures run camps in most winter sports disciplines.
The SSA Futures Moguls Development Camp dates for 2012 are Friday 3rd August – Sunday 5th August. 20 participants will be invited to attend the camp. Selection is based on Division 3 & 4 athletes’ performance and results in the Regional Interschool competitions. Peter Topalovic ‘Toppa’
(NSWIS/SSA National Freestyle Moguls Head Coach) will be at each regional event to select the promising young athletes.
The camp’s structure is an intense weekend of what’s it like to train, compete and live like an elite athlete. The selected young athletes will have On Snow training by Toppa (NSWIS/SSA National Freestyle Moguls Head Coach) and his NSWIS/SSA National Freestyle Mogul program athletes.
Anthony Khoury (NSWIS/SSA National Freestyle Moguls Acrobatic Coach) will put the athletes through a session on trampoline and acrobatics similar to session’s elite athlete’s experience.
The camp is run out of Jindabyne Sport and Recreation centre and all athletes are provided with accommodation, food and transport to and from Perisher Ski resort. On Sunday athletes will compete in the NSW Junior Moguls series alongside some of the best young athletes in NSW.
The SSA Futures ‘Athlete of the Future’ Camp is a highly competitive camp and the announcement of invitations to the camp will be made at each Regional Interschool competition presentation. Results are important but Toppa will also be looking at inviting athletes that he believes has technique and skiing skill to make in the sport of Moguls. It could be YOU.
Good luck at the NSW Interschools Regionals Moguls competitions.
