JOIN THE TEAM BEHIND THE TEAM

In the journey to athletic excellence, every contribution, no matter its size, holds immeasurable value. The "Team behind the Team" fund celebrates the importance that every supporter can make a meaningful difference. It's not just about the amount but the collective spirit and belief in our athlete's potential.

A tenth of a second or just an inch can determine whether an athlete wins gold, or silver, misses out on a medal, or even qualifies for their first World Cup, World Championships, or Olympic competition. Oftentimes, these margins can be decided by purely economic reasons. Since the margin of victory is usually tiny, a quality training camp or an additional competitive opportunity can make all the difference.

There are only a handful of post-collegiate programs for aspiring Olympic athletes. Our goal is to provide essential financial support to a select few individuals who possess the skill, drive, and dedication to pursue the goal of representing the United States in the upcoming World Cup, World Championships, and Winter Olympic Games. Our simultaneous goal is to develop athletes who are ambassadors and role models in our community who spread awareness, knowledge, and enthusiasm to promote a healthy lifestyle and grow participation in cross-country skiing.

On an even more personal level, your gift will impact the day-to-day life of a full-time athlete-in-training. Our athletes frequently put their careers on hold to live the Olympic dream.

With your support, you become an integral part of the team, fueling the dreams of our athletes and ensuring they have the resources they need to succeed.
