Local clubs play a
vital part in fostering Nordic ski sports across the State and throughout
the Mid-Atlantic Region. Informal arrangements and
working relationships between clubs and club members have been quite
successful over the years in providing an environment where our skiers of
all ages can participate, develop skills, foster broader interests, and
promote excellence in Nordic ski sports. For years local
biathlon clubs and orienteering clubs have provided a feeder program for
NYSSRA Nordic and for National and international level competition.
Your local Nordic ski club fosters interest in all facets of Nordic
ski sport, encourages participation at all levels and provide coaching where
the individual shows a need or interest.
As a NYSSRA Nordic member you are encouraged to join
your local club. These local clubs provide:
- year round social support
- access to training partners
- friendly environment for new comers interested in
learning about our sport
- mentoring and/or coaching programs and instruction
- better communication between members of the Nordic
ski community
- access to information on training, coaching, camps,
and clinics
- eligibility to compete in club championships
NYSSRA – Nordic will maintain liability insurance that
covers all NYSSRA Nordic club affiliates and all NYSSRA Nordic events.
