Mount Southington Race and Freeride Team

Mount Southington Race and Freeride Team Learn to compete in alpine racing and freeride at one of the finest grass-roots club programs in the East.

MTSO Racing and Freeride Team is USSA and USASA sanctioned, and a CT Youth Ski League member club. Prepare for racing and freeriding in one of the finest racing programs in the East. The Mount Southington Race Team, a youth racing academy, gives the young skier the opportunity to enter the world of competitive alpine skiing. This Program is designed to be fun while helping young people develop phy

sically, psychologically and socially. Staffed by our finest instructors, this Program is held at our Jerry Donovan Alpine Training Center. The goal of our program is to prepare the young skier for future competitions. Each skier is placed in a class based on age where the emphasis is not race results but achieving performance skills. These skills are achieved by the skiers and coaches working closely together throughout the season. The Mount Southington Race Team Program is open to skiers 8 to 20 years old who are serious about developing their skills and are able to ride a chairlift independently. Training begins the third Saturday in November regardless of whether Mount Southington ski area is open. Once the area opens, the race team hits the slopes every Thursday from 6:30-9:00pm, Saturday and Sunday (excluding holidays) from 8:30am-1:30pm when skiers are not racing. Special training hours are provided during school breaks, and though training ends the last weekend in February, training will be provided for any skier who qualifies for a championship series. Membership on the Race Team includes an unrestricted season pass, training by our highly qualified coaches, the Parents’ Association Fee and access to the terrain parks

Epic day for the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team as Mikaela Shiffrin and Paula Moltzan went 1-2 in the WC Sl in Simmering, AUS. It's the first time the US has done this in a tech event since the Cochran sisters did it in 1971.
