Why is University/Post-Secondary Skiing Important for the Growth of Cross Country Skiing?
7
Towards the end of high school, cross country skiers drop out at an alarming rate. Some think continuing to ski through post-secondary education isn't possible, while many do not have any options to keep skiing. Retaining athletes in the sport should be a high priority. Increasing and improving post-secondary options will help athlete retention and have far-reaching benefits: whether their goal is high performance, staying involved in racing, or transitioning to skiing from another sport, these athletes are very likely to be the future supporters, sponsors, coaches, admins, officials or parents of the next generation of skiers. The US system has ample evidence that post-secondary skiing has many benefits to the sport on many levels and can be compatible with high performance.
