National Sports School
The National Sports School was established in 1994 to support high-performance student athletes in grades 9 through 12. The school is committed to providing an environment for student-athletes to pursuer excellence in both their athletic and academic careers.
The National Sports School is located at Ernest Manning High School, 3600 16th Avenue SW, in Calgary. The school operates year round. Snowboarding is one of the 19 Olympic Sports represented by the athletes currently attending the school.
Athletes wishing to attend the sports school must submit their application to the National Sports School. From there, Winsport will contact Alberta Snowboarding to obtain recommendations on the athlete. Athletes will be contacted by Winsport via mail indicating if they have achieved sports approval and if the athlete may proceed to the next phase of application to the National Sports School.
