The Championships are designed to rally American alpine racers and the industry around one event. Recreational racers and fans of the sport will have the opportunity to meet, race and compete with current and former U.S. Ski Team athletes. There will be live music, Warren Miller film screenings, parties, sponsor demos, race video and more.
The Return of the Champions Family Challenge and U.S. Ski Team reunion is a team race where family members can compete as a team against other family teams. In addition, the event is designed as a U.S. Ski Team reunion so that alumni can bring their kids and their parents to the event and compete with their families. Teams must have a minimum of three family members and each team member will score points for their team within their age and gender group. Family Teams do not need to qualify for the race but pre-register is required as space is limited.
The U.S. Ski Team Pro-Am is a team event where race league teams and teams of friends from across the country can compete for a National Championship team title. To add to the excitement, each team will add a U.S. Ski Team athlete to their roster. Team captains will select their U.S. Ski Team athlete the night before the race at a welcome reception. Each team member will score points for their team based on the best handicap they earn in their age group. Each team must have a minimum of six team members.
The Nature Valley U.S. Alpine Championships will include Men’s & Women’s slalom, Giant Slalom and Super G. Don’t miss the action!
