Student-Athlete Reps
Hear from some of our 2022-2023 Student-Athlete Reps about how they help build engagement among the student athletes and represent the voice of the athletes within the USCSA’s national structure. Reps will talk about some of the programs in which they are involved and how their experiences have contributed to their own leadership development.

Partnerships, Alumni & Volunteers
Join members of the leadership team and USCSA’s Development Committee for a discussion on developing a pipeline of volunteers, engaging alumni and growing our partnership program. This session will highlight what is currently underway and what is planned for the upcoming season.

VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR
Presented to a USCSA volunteer, not holding a USCSA conference or board position that has gone above and beyond others to enhance the USCSA experience for athletes and events. The very existence of the organization depends deeply on the efforts of hundreds of volunteers working to deliver the USCSA experience. This award is presented in recognition of one that has given more of themselves to the USCSA than all others.

COACH OF THE YEAR
An individual, who during the past season has exemplified the qualities of a great coach in every sense of the position. This coach commanded the respect of other coaches and athletes alike, both on and off the race venue. Their influence on the sport extended beyond team, division and boundaries. The recipient of this award has contributed to the strengthening of the sport through increasing participation, respect and public awareness. The coach, to whom this honor is bestowed, represents the fundamental canons of USCSA collegiate skiing in every sense.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITY CODE: UPDATES

The National Ski Areas Association first developed the Skier Responsibility Code in 1962. In the last 60 years, the Code has undergone several revisions to stay in step with modern language and skiing behavior. The 2022 version of Your Responsibility Code has grown from seven points to 10: the pre-existing seven points were revised, sometimes minimally, to modernize the language; one previous point was split into two, and two new points were added (one, to emphasize the importance of not skiing or riding under the influence of alcohol/drugs, and another to let skiers and riders know what to do when you get into a collision or other on-mountain incident).

U.S. COLLEGIATE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS: RECAP
Thank you to everyone who joined us at the 2022 National Championships to compete, coach, volunteer, sponsor and cheer on the athletes.
