Speed Skating BC (SSBC) supports elite-level Youth, NeoJunior, Junior and Senior skaters through GenBC programming. GenBC programming is a mix of online and in-person opportunities led by the SSBC Technical Director and delivered by the SSBC Provincial Coach Coordinator, Strength & Conditioning Coach, and Mental Performance Consultants. GenBC programming is supplementary to the skater’s daily training environment (club programming or training center). Skaters qualify for GenBC 2023-2024 based on their performances during the 2022-2023 season.
