TBR Overseas Camp Information
WHISTLER SPRING CAMP MARCH/APRIL 2024
TBR Spring Camp 2024 - Whistler, Canada
Dear TBR Families and Athletes,
Thank you for your patience regarding the TBR Spring Camp. We had an amazing response to the EOI put out for this camp.
The most popular location was clearly Whistler in BC, Canada.
We are working to confirm that the camp will go ahead.
We are currently awaiting confirmation for access to moguls for training. I’m anticipating this to be done before Friday, as we are aware of the price rise on lift passes after the Sunday the 19th November.
We have limited the number of live-in athlete spots to 20, these spots will be allocated on a first come first serve basis. There may be opportunity to increase but no guarantee, if required we will start a waitlist.
Below is an outline of the camp details.
I have spoken to a number of interested families and if you are still interested in your child or children attending please let me know ASAP - tim@teambuller.com or 0402 287 619
