Ski Racing
Canterbury can boast no less than 3 clubs that have thriving race programmes:
- Team Hutt
- Porter Heights
- Mt Dobson
By far the biggest is Team Hutt where around 70 local and not so local youngsters train each weekend and during the school holidays through the ski season. Many of the team athletes will compete at the events found in the Calendar .
For more information on Team Hutt e-mail teamhutt@mthutt.co.nz
or check out the Mount Hutt Ski Club
website.
A number of Team Hutt members belong to National squads or teams.
Athletes from Team Hutt and other Regional Programmes compete in races organised by the local regions from fun events to National and International Ski Federation events.
Check out the Ski Racing New Zealand
website for more details, plus the CSA Calendar for local events held at the club fields in both snowboarding and alpine skiing. The Ski Racing New Zealand website also has a link to the FIS (International Ski Federation) website.
Competition snowboarding from Big Air to Alpine snowboarding is thriving in New Zealand. The New Zealand Snowboarding Association
