- We expect athletes to attend a minimum of 30% of the training sessions across the calendar year. If an athlete’s attendance falls below 30% they may be removed from the club before the next accreditation cycle.
- Training session attendance is based on the number of training days attended - attending two sessions back to back on the same day will not count for more than one session.
- There is a minimum attendance requirement of 50% to be eligible for the Hemel training weekend or Pila training week.
- Attendance to Pila, Hemel, and race days does not count towards the overall attendance requirement of 30%. The attendance is based on training sessions attended.
- An athlete must attend at least one Hemel training weekend before they are eligible to attend the Pila training week.
- If an athlete is absent for a prolonged period and then returns we may require them to attend the Hemel training weekend before they can attend Pila, even if they have been to Pila with the group previously.
- When an athlete leaves SOWM they must return the ski kit that was issued to them.
- The committee has discretion on matters of attendance.
This policy ensures we adhere to SOGB guidance. It also ensures we remain compliant with data protection regulations by allowing us to delete the personal details of athletes, parents and guardians who are no longer involved with the group.
