Norwesters Alpine Club

Norwesters Alpine Club is a not-for-profit, community-driven alpine ski racing organization based at Loch Lomond Ski Area in Thunder Bay, Ontario. We are proud members of Alpine Ontario Alpin (AOA) and Alpine Canada Alpin (ACA), and our programs are built around the ACA Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) model to ensure a structured, athlete-centered approach.

Our mission is to foster a lifelong love of skiing while developing confident, capable athletes both on and off the slopes. Our coaching team is certified through ACA – Canadian Ski Coaches and the Canadian Ski Instructors Alliance (CSIA), bringing professionalism, passion, and proven expertise to every training session.

We are committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment. As part of this commitment, we’ve adopted the Responsible Coaching Movement, and all staff are trained through the Respect in Sport initiative.

Coach development is a cornerstone of our philosophy. We offer pre-season professional development opportunities and actively support coaches in pursuing additional certifications.

At the core of everything we do are our young athletes. Their growth, well-being, and enjoyment of the sport are the driving forces behind every decision we make.
