Race Entries:

Team size is 3-5 girls and/or 3-5 boys per event. Be certain to indicate your desired seed order for each event, Girls SL, Boys SL, Girls GS, and Boys GS. Also, list your school's coaches who will be attending (up to 3 complimentary lift tickets for each team's coaches will be provided). Please email this information to Fred Hollister at the above address no later than Tuesday, February 17. Entry Form

The entry fee is $30 per racer and checks should be made payable to Noble and Greenough School. Please mail these no later than Friday, February 14, or bring your team's fees with you to registration on race day morning. Nobles' address is 10 Campus Drive, Dedham, MA 02026 and this payment should be put to the attention of Fred Hollister.

Each school must bring one person (or two if you want to split the duty) who will serve as a gatekeeper in both a morning and afternoon event. Coaches should bring a copy of the Shawnee Peak Release of Liability for each racer to registration, as competitors will not be allowed to race unless these are submitted.

Family members of racers who wish to ski at Shawnee Peak the day of the race will be offered tickets at the reduced rate of $25.00. These may be purchased at the window on the back side of the Main Slope timing building between 8:00 and 9:30.

Teams who wish to ski at Shawnee Peak Friday evening before the race will be eligible to buy a $10 lift ticket in order to do so.

General Information:

1. No racers may run the course or shadow it during their pre-race review. To do so risks immediate disqualification.

2. All racers are expected to be at the start at the proper time. Racers who miss their start will run at the end of the order.

3. A racer who has a binding release in the course is an automatic DSQ. However, if a racer loses one ski after passing the second to last gate on the course, (s)he may attempt to complete the race on one ski.

4. If a racer misses a gate and chooses to climb, (s)he must cross the horizontal plane on either side of the gate that was missed before continuing down the course.

5. If a racer feels his or her run has been interfered with, (s)he must ski out of the course where the infraction occurs. No protest will be allowed if the racer completes the course and/or crosses through the finish line. The racer must then ski to the finish area and await the decision of race officials as to whether or not a (provisional) rerun will be granted.
