NENSA Masters

Marc Gilbertson

New England offers a variety of events for master skiers (age 30+). Whether you are interested in racing or recreational skiing, a quick look at the NENSA calendar will no doubt catch your attention!

For those interested in racing, New England is home to many very accomplished Master skiers as seen by the outstanding results at World and Masters Nationals. Masters enthusiastically take on the fun, comaraderie, and competition of our TD Bank Citizen Series which
determines Zak (age-group) and Club Cup
rankings; and the TD Bank Marathon Series
The results database system will add excitement to each series by quickly tracking current standings on the NENSA website. Masters less experienced in racing can look toward weekend clinics around the region, and to the very popular New England Women’s Ski Day  to develop their skills.

If your interest is more on the recreational side, the TD Bank Marathon Series offers a touring class
at all events. There are also a myriad of club citizen races and fun events on the calendar each winter! There are other ways to become involved too- do you enjoy the idea of helping developing young athletes reach their potential?  Often times master skiers have a wealth of knowledge and skills that they would like to put to good use. Mentoring a young developing athlete, team or club is a great place to be involved! For ideas on how you can help give back to your ski community in a most rewarding way, contact Janice Sibilia at janice@nensa.net.
