Compete with other Snowboarders and Twin Tip Skiers
The Battalion Freeride Team is Welch Village's snowboard and twin tip ski division of the Minnesota Junior Development Program. A high energy and energetic program, Battalion coaching and competitions focus on flatland tricks, switch riding, rails, big air jumps, and alpine carving. Our coaches are advanced certified instructors who love to ride just as much as you do.
The team has weekly practices and four competitions during the season. All four of these competitions take place at other resorts this season requiring transportation and lift ticket purchase. There is a minimum skill level required, participants need to have "the ability to execute heel side and toe side turns down an entire beginner run." If you are looking for a "Learn to Snowboard" program, please refer to the Learning Programs section of our website.
