SOD Excellence Camp #2 @ Mont Tremblant
Aug 24 – Aug 29 all-day
SOD Excellence Camp #2 @ Mont Tremblant

As a part of the XCSO Excellence Camps program for 2025 Team Hardwood will be holding four training camps this summer, fall and winter open to other selected SOD U20, U18 and perhaps U16 athletes who do not have a regular daily training environment (DTE) and who have the training background to handle the training load in these camps.

The purpose of these camps is to offer to these selected skiers the opportunity to enhance their training opportunities and DTE to help them to represent their clubs and SOD at a higher level next racing season.

The second camp is on August 24-29 in Mont Tremblant. Again the focus will be on hiking, ski walking and roller skiing for volume with twice daily training of 3-4 hours per day. At the moment there is room for 3-4 skiers. We will be staying in a hostel and cooking our own meals. The approximate cost will be $600 plus a $100 coaching fee. Athletes and coaches will have to find their own way to the camp. Team Hardwood skiers will be ride sharing.
