This winter the J1 Scando Cup championships will take place in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden on February 2-5.
Coaches who wish to attend should have an in-depth knowledge of waxing, be very hard working, be able to organize and manage, have experience with youth and young adult athletes and be able to maintain a very positive attitude and environment in the face of difficult circumstances. Coaches must also be fit enough to test wax and skis.
The dates for the trip will be January 26st through February 5th.
We are looking to fill two positions to join the Trip Leader Gary York. (An assistant trip leader, and a head wax tech.)
