Race registration is now open for the 2013-2014 season! Complete information is available on the
Season Schedule page. You can register online at SkiRaceReg.com or print and mail an entry form
with checks directly to the race organizer. We encourage everyone to use the online race
registration, it's easy and reliable, no worrying about whether your entry got delivered by
mountain mail!

The December events at Mammoth on Dec. 7-8 (GS/GS/SL) and at Alpine Meadows on Dec. 21-22 (SL/SL)
are available on SkiRaceReg.com for signup now; the remaining races on our season schedule will be
added soon.
Our opening race weekend is at Mammoth, which is also hosting a masters training camp the week
before the races, so celebrate Thanksgiving with family and friends and then work off that turkey
and start your season with some early December racing!
Online Race Registration
------------------------
You will need to open or re-activate your account on SkiRaceReg before you can sign up for this
season's races. If you already have an account, this is mainly to allow you to review and update
your contact information, and also to provide current charge card information for charging race
entry fees. Remember - there are no fees for opening your account on the system - charges are made
only for race entry fees at the time a race is held. (You'll get a $0 charge message when your
account activation is completed - that's just a confirmation that the system has successfully
recorded your account information, you aren't being billed for anything yet!)
The entry deadline is published for all races and you can enter (or cancel without penalty) anytime
up to the deadline, which is usually set to provide a one-day setback to allow the race organizers
to pull entry lists and prepare the race operations computer systems for the event. Entries after
the deadline or on the morning of a race at checkin are at the discretion of the organizing area;
this is allowed when possible, but in some cases logistics do not permit, so please get entries in
by the deadline.
Mammoth Season Opener
----------------------
The 2014 race season opens at Mammoth with the Dave McCoy Classic on Dec. 7-8, with two GS races on
Saturday and a SL race on Sunday. Mammoth will be hosting a training camp the week before the race
on Mon-Fri Dec. 2-6, so if you're looking for a chance to get your ski legs ready to race this is a
great chance to get in some skiing and gate training. Attend for the entire week or by the day as
your schedule permits.

Mammoth Masters Camp
--------------------
Mammoth will once again offer a masters training camp on Mon-Fri Dec. 2-6, following the
Thanksgiving holiday weekend. This is a great way to kick off your season with some time on snow
and gate training going into the season opening race weekend on Dec. 7-8.
Drills, gates, and video sessions will be provided, with coaches from the Mammoth masters and ski
team. You can attend by the day or for the full week; see the camp information flyer for details or
visit the Race Department's web page on mammothmountain.com
