2019 Mt Buller Race Club Race Training Program 2019
MBRC 2019 Welcome - Season 2019 On behalf of the MBRC Staff, Committee and Coaches, we look forward to welcoming all new and returning members as you sign up over the next months. Please join us and contribute to our club’s rich history as we support your journey by developing your life and snow skills in season 2019. The season of 2018 started slowly but by the time term 2 School Holidays came around, there was plenty of snow to start the program and provide most of our athletes with their first taste of snow since the great snow of last season. We did not look back as the mountain was blessed by more snow through the season and our athletes were exposed to great training programs delivered by the Coaching Group and MBRC staff. With the significant support of snow technology by Buller Ski Lifts and cooperation by mother nature we will be confident of another great start and season in 2019. As a member of the MBRC community you will enjoy many benefits in addition to what is learnt on snow. Please read the following information carefully as we outline some of these benefits and provide you with information that is important to signing up for next season’s programs. We are entering an exciting period at MBRC as we work together to roll out our recently completed strategic plan. Enjoy the following months as you go on Summer Holidays and Northern hemisphere snow action if you are fortunate to find yourself there. Sincerely, Richard Haslau Program Director 2

2019 MEMBER INFORMATION
CONCUSSION
MBRC will enter a new phase of concussion management for all program participants in season 2019. We will fully adopt the advice and protocols outlined in the latest
concussion information from the Australian Medical Association ( AMA ) and Ski and Snowboard Australia. (SSA)
The Mt Buller Ski Patrol, Medical Centre and Doctors at the centre will all be up to date on this information from the AMA and work closely with the club to ensure the safe
management of an Athlete should a serious concussion have occurred.
With this in mind, the reality is that your child may in fact miss training and returning to snow for a minimum of two weeks or more. If training is missed due to concussion
only, MBRC will endeavour to offer replacement training at a time that MBRC is offering normal training in the regular season or during Spring Training.
There will be no refunds available due to concussion or any other injury. We recommend that you consider insurance to provide cover if a concussion or other injury results
in your child missing training.
All athletes coming back from a concussion or any other injury will enter into a return to snow program that will be assessed and created on a case by case basis in
conjunction with a Medical Practitioner and MBRC’s medical advisor.

The focus of Physical training will move away from testing to correct movements and education.

Sports psychologist Susi Martin has a long history with the club and will be based full time on the mountain to deliver programmed group sessions and is also available privately on request. Nutrition Athletes will be educated on the importance of good nutritional decisions. At all times, athletes will be encouraged to drink and bring water to training and have snacks that are healthy and relevant to being in an outdoor environment whilst participating in a demanding sport. 6

advancement plan.
Further, athletes are expected to communicate with the coaches on all aspects of the program plan, to wear team uniform
whenever directed by the coaching staff, to behave in a fashion that brings credit to themselves, team and program, to show
respect for fellow athletes, coaches and officials, and to respect the decisions of the coaching staff.

Ski and Snow Board Australia (SSA) is the National Body for Alpine Skiing and Snow Boarding in Australia and is affiliated with the world
body , Federation Internationale De Ski (FIS).
Their role in Australian Alpine sports is to “Support athletes and develop Champions” and do this by providing support and tools for our
club to achieve this. MBRC is fully affiliated and aligned with the National body (SSA) and more recently has adopted the recent initiatives
and vision that SSA has implemented.
From an Alpine point of view, these initiatives have been developed as a result of the Alpine review driven by SSA Alpine Director Mick
Branch and similar initiatives that will also be rolled out by SSA for Snow Boarding through Head Snowboard coach Jason Clauscen.
Some of the SSA programs that MBRC participate in during and out of season are; Skills assessment, Children’s Carnival for U14 and U16 Athletes, Physical Literacy camps,
Futures for Snow Board and FIS Races for Alpine athletes older than 15 (FIS Age Group).
SSA Membership for the 2019 season has yet to be determined and will be the responsibility of parents to sign their child up for membership and to access any of the
programs that SSA provides like the ones mentioned in the paragraph above.
For further information, please check the SSA website and download the Alpine, Skicross and Snowboard Handbook.
