Active for life

Having built a solid foundation in the first three stages, participants progress to ski and do sports of their choice for enjoyment, satisfaction or for the health benefits they obtain. Some compete in organized sport, while others do not. 

• Competitive for Life: for those who compete within the formal structure of their sport. This could be at the U-14 or U-17 level in a house league, all the way to World Masters Competition. 

• Fit for Life: for those who participate simply because they get satisfaction from sport or physical activity. It also describes those who engage in non-sporting physical activity. 

• Sport and Physical Activity Leaders: those individuals who contribute to the sport: coaches and instructors, officials, administrators, judges, etc. 

An individual is not restricted to one of these pathways at any given time, they can be actively involved in multiple pathways.
