Colorado Cup 2007-08

 

The Rocky Mountain Nordic Colorado Cup is firmly established as the premier cross-country race series in the Rocky Mountain region.  The goal of Colorado Cup is to inspire fun and friendly ski racing all winter long while increasing the level of competition for all age groups.

The Colorado Cup was founded by Nathan Schultz and Matt Muir three years ago and it is gaining popularity. During the 06-07 ski season the Rocky Mountain Nordic Ski Education Foundation (a division of the United States Ski Association for the Rocky Mountain region) took over the Series.  RMN will strive to keep the high standard and work to grow the numbers of happy ski racers.

Each race in the Colorado Cup Series is scored and points are tallied for top 20 men and women overall and for the top 5 men and women in every age group.  Scoring is updated after every race and skiers can check their standings on Rocky Mountain Nordic’s website, www.rmnordic.org.  Each athlete’s 6 best individual results will be counted toward the overall cup standings.  Overall winners and age group winners will receive awards and possibly prize money at the Colorado Cup Season Finale.  In order to be scored, a Rocky Mountain Nordic membership will be required. This year, membership includes an RMN racing hat! To join online go to "Join RMN" page and follow the instructions. You can download membership form from the "Info/Forms" page and mail to the address on the form.

Have a great season, hope to see you in tracks.
