We are pleased to announce that the next NWSF Schools Race will be held at Pendle Ski Club on 27th February 2016.
The format will be the same as in previous years, with inidivual timed runs which will count to a racers own time plus a school team time if applicable.
Racers enter as individuals from a school but can be put together to form a team in the different age groups of Infants, Juniors, Lower Seniors (key stage 3), Upper Seniors (key stage 4) and Sixth Form. Racers must be in full time education and be Under 19 on the day of the race.
The teams are of 3 or 4 with the best 3 skiers timed runs to count to the team award. Skiers can be from one age group or a mixture but the oldest skier determines the category.
The day runs as 2 times runs in the morning with these counting to the prizes (awards are for 1st, 2nd and 3rd boy and girl in each age category also overall fastest boy and girl .) The team event has 1st in boys team, girls team and mixed team in each age category.
After the timed runs there is a fun event with racers allocated a team based on their morning run times so all teams are reasonably equal. A head to head knock out event determines the winners.
If you have taken part previously Jenni Corr – NWSF Schools race co-ordinator will send out details although entry forms etc will be published when available via the Club Website.
