Junior Olympic Information

All,

I promised to add this information for those interested in skiing Junior Olympic events.  The website that explains how to sign up for races is http://www.cxcskiing.org/

The Junior Olympics is divided into divisions: J4, J3, J2, J1, OJ which are age groups
For Middle school skiers they would be in J3 (1999/2000)
Freshman and sophomores are J2s (1997/1998)
Junior and Seniors J1 (1995/1996)
Seniors & College JO (1993/1994)

You need to have a CXC license in order to get points for JNQ.  Some JNQ races also have High School races that don't require a CXC license.  The races have a cost, HS races are less expensive than JNQ races.
