Grand Targhee Ski Team programs are designed for school-age athletes who are interested in pursuing competition or general excellence within the competitive sports of Alpine ski racing, freestyle skiing and snowboarding.

We offer flexible and affordable programs for all levels of snowsport competition. Programs include one-, two- and three-day-per-week programs to fit any budget and any age or skill level of your child.

Our programs include: Targhee Tigers, a half-day-per-weekend program for younger, starting @ $275 for 8 sessions; Comp Development, a one- or two-day program designed for skiers ready to step up their competition participation, priced at $440 and $715 respectively; and the Advanced Comp program for more experienced competitors who are ready to compete in a larger amount of regional competitions, priced at $880. Our Program Guide includes complete descriptions and pricing for all programs. Download a PDF of our 2007-08 Program Guide to get started.

Our policy os to accept everyone who wants to participate. If there are financial constraints, please consider applying for a scholarship (download form).

In addition to our basic programs, the Ski Team provides on-snow coaching during the Teton Valley School District's Winter Sports Program (see form below). In the past, kids would train with volunteer parents. Now, ski team members can jump on the Ski Team Van and train with their coach. Kids are picked up and dropped off at their school.
