Ski & Snowboard Australia E-News Edition 64
2006 Australian Ski & Snowboard Awards
The Ski & Snowboard Awards has always been a night first and
foremost for the athletes and to honour their achievement over the
previous 12 months. Attendees also take great pleasure in the
interaction with our sporting heroes. SSA now understands that a
large number of athletes, particularly our Olympic representatives,
have become unavailable to join us on the evening.
Accordingly, SSA has made the decision to postpone the
evening with a new date and location to be determined shortly.
Award nomination deadlines and the judging process will continue
not withstanding the postponement of the dinner. If you wish to
view the awards categories or submit a nomination please click

We thank you for your understanding and trust that this decision
does not cause too much inconvenience.

Sport Program Update
The formal program review process is underway for all SSA funded
programs now that the 2005/2006 Northern Winter has drawn to a
close. It is anticipated this will conclude mid April.
The program review process is being done in conjunction with OWI,
NSWIS, VIS and SSA Management and program coaches. Programs are
assessed against their stated program aims and athlete KPI’s.
Program Planning
SSA management has been involved in preliminary discussions with
Institute partners re: 4 year program planning.
The four year planning process and subsequent program
recommendations is anticipated to be completed by May 2006.
A series of meetings/forums with members of discipline committees
and sport program technical experts will be conducted in April/May
to gain feedback and input into program direction and athlete
pathways.
