Born from racing

We have always excelled in the space between family and a pure racing
experience which is rooted deeply in our culture and purpose.

For skier’s aged 6 to 10, we provide the opportunity to train and race in a team environment without the formal racing structure and traveling associated with higher level competitions.

RACING

The Club is proud of its traditions, dating back to 1964 when 5,000 spectators enjoyed the Beehive Race down Waterfall. This race helped launch Devil’s Glen Country Club. Devil’s Glen is proud of its members who have emerged from the Club’s racing program to become Provincial and National Ski Team Members. Our competitive ski training and racing program combines individual skill development with a fun team atmosphere. For skiers aged 6 to 10, we provide the opportunity to train and race in a team environment without the formal racing structure and traveling associated with higher level competitions. The racing programs offer something for the young and the young at heart. For the bigger folks, our adult racing program provides a fun, competitive outlet. As a member of Alpine Ontario, Devil’s Glen offers competitive individual racing programs for skiers who strive for National Team or university scholarships. Led by a dedicated group of Coaches, who are certified by Alpine Canada Alpin Canadian Ski Coaches Federation (ACA-CSC), the Devil’s Glen racing program offers an enjoyable experience for all members of the family. 
 

SNOW PROGRAMS

Club snow programs provide a variety of skill, fun and a sense of belonging to young and old alike. Our snow school has options for skiers and snowboarders of all ages and abilities. Session programs are designed for everyone from tiny tots to members of any age. Lessons are held on Saturdays and/or Sundays for nine or ten weeks during January and February. Special programs are offered during Christmas and March Break and private and group lessons are available at anytime. Our growing snowboard instruction program teaches first-timers all the way up to those wishing to learn freestyle or racing techniques. 
 

TERRAIN PARK

In addition to the extensive range of snow experiences Devil’s Glen has to offer, skiers and boarders alike will love the state of the art Terrain Park.
