Outaouais Ski Zone
The Outaouais Ski Zone is a provincially recognized non-profit organization established to promote alpine ski racing in the Outaouais region.
The Zone is composed of six ski clubs: Académie Sainte Marie, Club de ski La Descente,
Edelweiss Ski Club, Vorlage Ski Club,
Mont Ste-Marie
Ski Club and the Mont Cascade Ski Club. The membership is composed of more than 200 skiers between the age of 6 and 18, some 30 certified
coaches and 60 Club and Zone officials, and a large number of parents. We recruit ski racers from both sides of the Ottawa River and we
offer bilingual services.
The Zone represents regional interests at the Québec Ski Federation and organizes alpine ski racing activities and programs in the Outaouais
region in cooperation with the National Capital Division. Our programs offer skiers of all levels the opportunity to develop their full potential
in a safe, bilingual and dynamic environment.
Alpine Canada

Ski Team and the Canadian Para-Alpine Ski Team who represent Canada throughout the world.
Nancy Greene Ski League
The Nancy Greene Ski League is the grass roots program of Alpine Canada Alpin - while national in scope, it is operated by the provincial
associations and the many affiliated ski clubs across the country. Each club offers the type of program that fits their situation while
following the guidelines set out by their division or zone and keeping in mind the national philosophy.
Husky Snow Stars
The Husky Snow Stars is a skill development tool for young skiers.
This seven-step program will guide the child, coach, and parent through a progression that is aligned with the Long Term Athlete Development Plan (AIM 2 WIN).
Optimal motor skill development takes place primarily between the ages of 5 to 12. For this reason the program is aimed generally at young skiers from Entry
level to the end of K1. Husky Snow Stars provides clubs and coaches guidance through the early "Windows of Trainability" where it is critical to carry out the
"Right Athletic Development at the Right Time".
