General Information
Who we are
The Regina Alpine Race Team/Snow Stars has provided hundreds of youth with the opportunity to participate in the sport of downhill skiing both at a novice introductory level and as competitive racers. The club is a family-oriented club providing training targeted at alpine skiers with all levels of experience for children from ages 5 to 18.
We are affiliated with the Regina Ski Club as a non-profit organization operated through a Board of Directors with an Executive elected from within its members. The club believes in a strong involvement and participation by its family members to ensure that a high calibre educational and development programming is available to participating youth.
Experienced instructors and coaches certified by the Canadian Ski Coaches’ Federation (CSCF) provide programming and skills development for the novice and racers.
Member Handbook
RART’s mission is “To Build Skiers for Life”, and all the programs, coaching and member activites reflect this mission. At RART, your child will be encouraged to develop as an alpine race athlete while also developing the skills that will support them to be successful in life. Families are welcomed into the club environment and community of alpine racing and RART strives to create an inclusive environment where new members feel right at home.
Our club thrives on the dedicated support of our members and volunteers. We are passionate about building life-long skiers, and we work hard to provide positve role models and a learning environment that develops great skiing skills.
The Regina Alpine Race Team/Snow Stars have a newly created handbook to help members with common questions. It also serves as a general guide to club policies and expectations.
