Dear Sugar Bowl Academy Community,
I hope everyone enjoyed the break. Welcome back to school! This week we will be on an alternate off-snow schedule that adds academic time. Each day remains 8:30 am to 4:45 pm, each day starts at Village Hall, each day has breakfast available, and each day includes workouts and classes. Let's have a strong finish to this school year.
Sincerely,
Stephen
Executive Director

Recovery After a Knee Injury
Recovery depends on the type and severity of the injury, but early rest and proper rehab are key. Athletes should avoid returning too soon, as this increases the risk of re-injury.
Core Principles:
Follow provider and ATC/PT guidance
Start with pain-free range of motion and basic strength
Progress gradually to more advanced strength, balance, agility, and ski-specific drills
Maintain conditioning as appropriate, progressing from non-impact to impact activities gradually
Return to snow only after clearing functional testing
A structured, progressive rehab plan supports a safe return and better long-term knee stability.
