U10

The U10 alpine programs are for assertive young skiers ages 8-10 and are focused on developing increasingly refined alpine skills. WVBBTS winter programs run from late November to the end of March. Training is every weekend and includes the Holiday Break and February Vacation weeks (Massachusetts or New Hampshire)

We provide a fun, yet structured learning environment that emphasizes racing skills and techniques in all types of conditions and terrain. U10 athletes will compete in 4 to 5 local USSS races throughout the season. Our U10 athletes will also have the opportunity to show off their skills at three "Skills Days" at Loon, Cannon, & Waterville.


2023/2024 U10 Program (YOB 2014 & 2015)  Fees: Early Bird $2,357 -  Regular Rate $2,828
