GENERAL RACE SCHEDULE

The HS race schedule starts mid-December and runs through late February.  Races are typically on weekends. Race events are typically one technique, either freestyle or classic. Girls and boys race separately.  In many cases, JV and varsity race together.  Therefore, one race event will have 2-4 races for the HS skiers. Race distances range from 4 to 10 km over flat to rugged terrain. Most races are day trips, but a couple races will require overnight stays for the team.  LNST registration fees cover some lodging for the skiers. Parents will be needed to chaperone overnight trips and pay for some lodging. Race registration is covered by LNST.

OPTIONAL RACES AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE

(You register, you pay, and your skier can wear the LNST uniform and wax.)

 

Junior National Cup/CXC Great Lakes Division Junior Cup

There are some higher level competitive races that are optional for athletes. One can compete to earn a spot on the Great Lakes junior national team or just have the desire to experience a higher level of competition.  A CXC membership/race license is required.  Additional details can be found at https://cxcskiing.org/pages/events/cxc-junior-cup.html. Athletes must pay for their own race license, race fees, and accommodations.  LNST can assist with wax recommendations and ski prep or can provide suggestions for private vendors for wax services. See Coach for additional information.
