Ontario Cup Nordic Ski Racing
Each winter a series of races take place in locations throughout Ontario that collectively form the Ontario Cup series. Each district of Cross Country Ontario hosts a race at one of it’s member club sites. Races typically run on weekends with Saturday races being of the ‘Classic’ style and Sunday races being of the ‘Free’ or ‘Skate’ style. There are age categories for the participants in each race that may include midget aged boys and girls, juvenile aged boys and girls, junior aged boys and girls, junior aged men and women, and senior men and women. Points are awarded based on finish results of each race. These points are used to as selection criteria for high performance team selections and awards.
This winter, Southern Ontario District is proud to support Ontario Cup #1 at Highlands Nordic on December 18/19, 2010. The event promises to be a great showcasing of Nordic skiing in southern Ontario. Take the opportunity to go and watch, participate, or volunteer to help out.
