Would you like to volunteer, on hill, for the 2015 Canada Winter Games in Prince George, BC? Alpine skiing is looking for skiers who are 15+ to come and volunteer for the Super G, GS, Slalom, and Ski Cross races taking place at Purden and Tabor Mountains from February 13th (training day) to 20th, 2015. The Super G, GS, and Slalom races will take place at Purden Mountain from February 14th to 18th, and the Ski Cross race will take place at Tabor Mountain on February 19th and 20th.

All of these events will be exciting to watch and will showcase the best 14 and 15 year old racers from across the country.

If you are interested in helping out, please contact Karen Wells at wellsk@telus.net.

ATTN CLUBS!! – Send your Chief of Race to the BC Officials Update Nov 1-2

by | Oct 8, 2014 | Member News

Just a reminder that our Officials Update is coming up on Nov 1 and Nov 2 in Kamloops.  Please forward this article and invite anyone running races this year.

We will be starting mid day on Saturday and leaving mid day on Sunday. This should give everyone a fair amount of day light driving opportunity and give us a chance to catch up with everyone Saturday evening. The meetings will again be held at the Tournament Centre, and accomodation information will follow.

We will provide you with the latest from FIS, what's going on in the province, and lots of case studies.  You will also get a chance to start twisiting arms to get support for your race events!

 

Please let me know if you are coming, as we are starting to work on all the logistics.

Requests for COI (Certificates of Insurance): ACA memo to BC Alpine clubs

by | Oct 6, 2014 | Member News

Below I am publishing an email directly from Alpine Canada regarding requests for Certificate of Insurance.

 

 

Good morning everyone,

As the season is approaching rapidly approaching, so are the influx of requests for certificates of insurance.

As a reminder a COI should only be requested and issued where a 3rd party such as a ski resort/area, school, gymnasium, sponsor wants proof that the club or event is insured and/or wants to be added to the policy as an additional insured. All clubs, club members of the NSO and activities that are calendared are covered – Unless the activity is unusual or not normal to the sport.

It is encouraged that a single COI cover all the 3rd party entities for a club, region or zone on the 1 certificate to avoid separate COI’s where ever possible. It is essential that the correct legal name and address for the entity who wants to be added is provided.

I have attached the document that is required to be filled out for all requests, it must also be noted that the document can be found on the Alpine Canada website for future reference.

I ask kindly that this memo is sent out to your respective clubs who are eligible to request the certificates of insurance so they are aware of the requirements moving forward.

If anyone has any questions in relation to the attachment or memo above , please do not hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards,

Ashlie.

MUST READ ARTICLE for all FIS athletes/coaches or clubs with FIS programs

by | Jun 18, 2014 | Member News

Alpine Canada Alpine has just released an important memo regarding Sport Accident Insurance Policy (SAIP) insurance which can be viewed in it's entirety via this link:

The most important key points are:

  1. The SAIP insurance policy broker will be changing this season.
  2. Terms of the new SAIP policy will be different than previous terms (these have not yet been revealed).
  3. As of June 30th all existing SAIP documentation is considered void.
  4. All FIS members participating in events after June 30 MUST BE REGISTERED WITH BC ALPINE FOR 2014/15 season before they participate in order for coverage to be valid.

As the registration database does not turn over to the new season until July 1st, this may pose a problem for some athletes. In order to facilitate this issue please have your registrar or coach email me with a list of athletes which need to be active as of July 1st, and those athletes will be put forward on the new season immediately.
