Trainee Intake Tests
The trainee intake tests consist of a 2 day event where we get to judge your skiing and boarding ability, and you get to meet us to see what we do live on the hill. The next intake test weekend is scheduled for the 31st August and 1st September 2024.
Please monitor this page and Facebook for any updates.
