Programs
Sugar Bowl Academy offers programs for athletes ages 5-19. Our integrated program allows athletes to ski or board on weekends and holidays, train 5 days a week, or combine world-class athletics and college preparatory academics together for year-round training. The progression of programs introduces more intensive training options as athletes reach junior and high school, in line with training requirements for competitive skiers and snowboarders.
All programs except our guest skier program include an unrestricted combo season pass and a team jacket.
