Bobsleigh Sport Programs
Bobsleigh sport programs are offered for ages 16 and up (13-15 year-olds may be able to join in mono bob at coach's discretion). They include multi-day Bobsleigh Foundation Schools as well as our Bobsleigh Pilot Development Program for athletes of all levels and training goals, up to high performance racing. There are also opportunities to get involved as brakeman/brakewoman.
Within the BC Sliding Development Centre, a clear pathway and experienced staff lead youth and adults through their progression levels. Meet our sliding coaches!
International athletes are welcome to join the BC SDC bobsleigh programming, more information here.
More information about participation in our programs is available in our athlete handbook. All programs follow a clear athlete pathway, and coaches follow a development pathway as laid out by the national federation.
For any questions, contact the sport team by phone at 604-964-0044 or by email.
