The best time to teach the rules of Alpine skiing is during practice. Please refer to the
Official Special Olympics Sports Rules for the complete listing of Alpine skiing rules. As a coach, it is your responsibility to know and understand the rules of the sport. It is equally important to teach your athletes the rules that enable them to compete in Alpine skiing. A coach must maintain current copies of the
Official Special Olympics Sports Rules and also The International Ski Federation — Fédération Internationale de Ski (FIS) ICR (The International Ski Competition Rules) which can be found at
