Recruitment Camps
Do you have what it takes to be a champion?
Bobsleigh Canada Skeleton's recruitment team travels across Canada each year searching for the next generation of Canadian Bobsleigh and Skeleton Champions. Athletes must be hard working and motivated with explosive power, strength and speed, and who have a team mentality.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic BCS recruitment camps are currently on hold.
There will still be the opportunity for you to try out for the team, for more details please contact our National Recruitment Coordinator:
