Overview
The United States Collegiate Ski & Snowboard Association is a sports federation for collegiate team ski racing and snowboarding in America. You can be part of a team at any college in the United States. The USCSA has an alpine, nordic, snowboard, freeski or ski jumping collegiate competition programs available. If a college does not have a team, students can start one with the help of the organization. The USCSA asserts that student-athletes, of ALL levels and abilities, should have access to a quality and exciting venue of competition. The organization also recognizes "student" comes before "athlete" and for its members to be successful individuals, academics should take priority. Organization Structure
