COACHING
ONTARIO WATER SKI INSTRUCTORS' 
COURSE - 1994

The 1994 Ontario Water Ski 
Instructors' Course (OWSIC) will be 
held from Saturday, June 18 to 
Thursday, June 23. 

Every participant receives 
NCCP Level 1 certification
	OWSIC has been providing first-
class water ski instructors for over 
30 years.  The course is unique in 
providing an outstanding student-
teacher ratio and an excellent quality 
of instruction.  Many camps and ski 
schools now require that their 
instructors attend OWSIC.

	OWSIC covers all bases, offering 
skill teaching techniques ranging 
from beginner two-ski, through 
advanced slalom, tricks, jumping and 
barefooting.    Also included are:
*	boat handling
*	driving techniques for water skiing
*	risk management
*	conditioning & training
*	equipment design & care
*	instructor psychology
*	ski school management
*	show skiing

	The course is not designed to 
improve participant's own skiing 
skills.  Instead,  lectures, audio-
visual aids, printed materials and 
practical training are used to 
introduce participants to the safest 
and most advanced methods of teac-
hing water skiing.
