The Alyeska Ski Club (ASC) is a non-profit corporation dedicated to working with parents, families, and many other youth programs to provide exciting, challenging, and character building alpine ski experiences for Alaskans. Alpine skiing is an excellent activity for physical and mental conditioning. Over the past forty years, ASC has helped thousands of children and young adults prepare for life by providing the training and skill development needed to compete in alpine ski racing events. Many of our athletes compete successfully on the international, national, and regional levels. ASC alumni include Olympic and World Cup athletes Tommy Moe, Megan Gerety, and Rosey Fletcher. ASC programs are based on age and availability. The Alyeska Mighty Mite program introduces children between the ages of seven and twelve to the fundamentals of alpine skiing and racing. 200 children are expected to participate this year! The Alyeska Devo program is dedicated to skiers eight through thirteen years of age. This program develops all-mountain skills through directed free-skiing, race drills, and gate training. The Alyeska Junior Program is for competitive athletes committed to alpine ski racing. Athletes are between eleven and twenty years old. Junior skiers compete locally, regionally, nationally. and internationally. 2, 3, and 5+ day training programs are also available, in addition to dry-land training. The Alyeska Masters Ski Club consists of alpine skiers twenty-one years or older who are seeking great skiing, and training to become better technical skiers in a fun, learning environment. The Masters program is designed to increase technical skills through skiing, gate training, and competition, if you choose to race. The most important element is the fun! The Alyeska Mighty Bikes program began as an off-season, dry-land training program for ASC athletes, but has grown to include others interested in mountain biking. This program is for bikers aged from eight to eighteen. Mighty Bikes teaches fundamental bike handling skills, introduces kids to mountain bike racing, and promotes fitness through the pursuit of fun. Mighty Bikes is family-oriented; parents are welcome to participate in all Mighty Bikes activities.
