Bruce Brewington avoids a pole! |

The season comprises a series of seven to nine races, starting in December or January and ending in March. The courses alternate between slalom and giant slalom. League races are held at the Lake Tahoe resorts, drawing participants from each of the singles clubs in the Bay Area. All competitive levels of racing are welcome, from beginners to elite standing. Yes, that includes snowplowing beginning skiers! You will race against other participants of similar ability.
These are strictly amateur events. Pins, trophies, and the undying admiration of your club are some of the rewards. Racers who have participated during the regular season are also permitted to represent the Singles League in the Northern California finals, held at one of the Lake Tahoe resorts in March, and in the Far West Championships, held in March or April, at a different west coast venue each year.
More About Snowboard Racing
The Singles League was the first skiing organization to include snowboard racing in the race schedule. Snowboarders race on the same dates and on the same courses as skiers. Pins and trophies are awarded, and points count towards the club totals. You may ski AND board in the same race if you choose.
The San Francisco Ski & Snowboard Club fully embraces this exciting sport, and hopes to see you on the hill.
Racing Spirit
Racing can be fun. It's as competitive or as frivolous as you want. There are many benefits that come with racing, like camaraderie amongst the clubs, and special suites at functions. Best of all is that, at whatever level you ski or board now, you will learn to ski or board better!
