This year, the NSAC is organizing the Winter Program from February 1 to 22, consisting of several courses ranging in level from beginners to advanced. Whether you ski, snowboard, prefer touring or prefer freeriding, there is a perfect course for you! There is also an ice climbing course that is aimed at those who already alpine in the summer, but now also want to make the step to winter alpinism.
Registrations
Registrations start on October 3 and are online until mid-November, so register quickly. We are busy arranging the courses and it is possible that courses will fill up. At the moment it is still possible to register, but certain priority arrangements for students/SAC members will no longer apply. More information can be found here.
Kick-off
This year, a Kick-Off day will be organized (somewhere in mid-November) as part of your course (which is why participation is strongly recommended). The price for this day is already included in the course price. More information will follow.
WP Committee
The WP committee consists of:
Eran Brinkman (WP commissioner)
Sophie Keemink (Finance)
Sterre de Gooijer (Promosaris)
Jesse Feenstra (Registration commissioner)
Robin van den Bogaert (Kick-off commissioner)
We are an intersaccial enthusiastic group of winter sports enthusiasts of different levels. Some of us followed the piste basic course last year or gave it ourselves and became so enthusiastic that we wanted to help with the organisation of the WP this year. Others have been skiing and snowboarding fanatically for years, give lessons, enjoy off-piste and ski touring and/or are very experienced après-skiers. As a committee, we are committed to the organisation of the WP 2025. Our chairman, together with the outgoing chairman, compared various areas and chalets and selected the best. Furthermore, we keep an eye on the registrations, promote our program, organize a kick-off, keep in touch with instructors and try to answer all your questions as best as possible! We are really looking forward to February and hope for white peaks on top of the mountains. Together with you, we will also come and enjoy the chalet and the program that we are putting together.
See you in the mountains! 🏂❄️
