Overview

 

Our Youth Bobsled and Skeleton program is the only one of its kind in the United States — and it’s coming back soon!

For more than 40 years, we’ve been training the next generation of sliding sport athletes right here in Lake Placid. Olympians like John Napier, Codie Bascue, and Hunter Church all got their start in this very program. Designed for athletes as young as 8 years old, it’s been the launchpad for countless young competitors, from local events like the Empire State Winter Games to international stages such as Junior Worlds and the Junior Olympics.

While the program is currently on pause, we’re gearing up for its return and building our next roster of future sliders. If you or a young athlete (ages 8–16) are ready to try something new, challenge yourself, and experience the thrill of sliding sports stay tuned!
