Central Region 1
Race day
From the notice to the start list
Every race follows the same path: the race notice, the team captains' meeting the night before, then the final information and the race-day groups.
Race notices
Scored race notices
Each scored race is announced the week of the race with its preliminary schedule, the chief of race and the venue's notes. Final information follows the team captains' meeting.
Non-scored race notices
The same for non-scored race days: the notice first, then the final schedule, athlete lists and first-run start lists after the team captains' meeting.

On the hill
Live results are on U.S. Ski & Snowboard live timing during the race, where the timing crew's feed goes; it depends on the host site's cell reception. Final results post to each athlete's MyUSSA portal once they are submitted.
Region 1 races follow the U.S. Ski & Snowboard alpine competition guide.
Live timingRaces are not possible without parents
Volunteer positions include many that need no training. Sign up early so the race can be planned.
