SRD and Keely's Ski Camp For Girls!


SRD is proud to be a new partner with Keely Kelleher and her Ski Camp for Girls! We have been hearing rave reviews from athletes, parents and coaches alike for this program, including SRD Squadra athlete Sofia Yubero. Once again SRD is excited to be a part of future Ski Racing Development!

Keely Kelleher from Big Sky, MT, is the founder and director of Keely’s Ski Camp for Girls. She has twenty-two years of ski racing experience; a nine-year member of the U.S. Ski Team, racing competitively on the World Cup and was the 2010 National Super G Champion. She is currently a coach for the Junior Rowmark Race Program and a student at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, UT.
Why I started a ski camp for girls: 

When I was eight years old I remember watching Diane Roffe and Picabo Street win Olympic medals. My two pet bunnies instantly had their names changed, to Diane and Picabo. Professional women athletes, such as myself, are given an opportunity to reflect a positive and healthy image to young girls in sports. In 2011 I couldn’t think of a better way to accomplish this then by starting the first ever ski racing camp for girls. 

This camp provides the unique opportunity to be coached by not only the best females in the sport of skiing, but the best role models. I recognize that skiing has given me incredible opportunities and shaped who I am today. The staff and myself are dedicated to sharing our wisdom, knowledge and experience with the next generation of female skiers. 

As we enter our 2nd year of ski camps for girls, we are as motivated as ever in providing young girls with the best possible ski camp experience.
