News About Us Rules Schedule Results Photos Rules Committee Mission The mission of the Rules Committee is to formulate a framework of rules consistent with high school ski racing nationally, taking into consideration the purpose of our ski league, which is to encourage and train young people in the sport and enjoyment of alpine skiing. Our league attempts to be inclusive rather than exclusive, yet we want to provide ample challenge our better, more experienced racers.   Due to the size, location and other unique features of our race league, the coaches have to wear many hats. It was proposed and accepted that we review the USSA Alpine Officials Manual, adapt as necessary to fit our league and make copies of our additional rules available to each team. This is to help everyone involved to understand some of the complexities of organized ski racing while using the knowledge within to facilitate our own races. Please note that at this time that SKIER SAFETY IS THE CHIEF GOAL OF ALL RACING.   With this in mind the rules committee has examined the following topics: The Rules, Jury, and Technical Delegate Race Administration Race Scoring Further Documentation We follow all of the FIS/USSA official rules for alpine ski racing. In certain instances, however, we have needed to clarify/document how these rules should be interpreted when applied to a high school racing league. Wherever FIS guidelines don't apply to the running of a high school race, we have attempted to interpret how the rules apply to us without changing the overall intent of the official rules.   Further documentation is available related to the following topics: USSA Alpine Competition Regulations Official FIS Alpine Ski Racing Rules The Ski East Jury and Coaches as Administrators Rules for Running and Scoring a Typical Ski East Race 2004-2005 MIAA State Championship Tournament Rules for Alpine Skiing News About Us Rules Schedule Results Photos
