Overview
Three days on the ice in the Bernese Oberland, under the Eiger north face. The camp runs for 3 days at Sportzentrum Grindelwald. Each day mixes on-ice, off-ice and competition.
On the first morning every athlete is assessed and placed in a group at their level. Coaches give each athlete feedback at the end of the day, and the notes go into their Xsports profile.
Coaching in English and German.
Group 1
Ages 8 to 14
Group 2

A typical day
While one group is on the ice, the other trains off the ice: stretching, mobility and PEP. Then they swap. Goalies start with 45 minutes of goalie ice before the first session. Times to be confirmed.

FAQ
How are the groups decided?
By age and by what the coaches see in the first-morning assessment. Elite and development groups train separately. If a coach thinks an athlete would do better in the other group, they'll move them and tell you.
Can I cancel or move the booking?
Yes. Up to 60 days before the camp you can move to another camp, hand your place to someone else, or take the full amount as credit. We do not give cash refunds. From 30 days before the camp, bookings can no longer be changed.
What should we pack?
The packing list goes into your account 14 days before camp, with the final schedule and the check-in QR code.
Who looks after full-board athletes?
Certified staff are with them around the clock, and a camp manager stays at the hotel.
