Central Cross Country Ski Association

In 2009/2010 The Central Cross Country Ski Association worked in collaboration with Minnesota Youth Ski League in Minneapolis, MN and various race organizers to create a series of youth races named the METRO NORDIC YOUTH SUPER SERIES, MNYSS
Pronounced "MINIS" www.mysl.org

In 2010/2011 CXC Youth will support other clubs and race directors in developing their own youth races and series. Contact CXC Youth Director Everett Myers for a manual that outlines how to run your own race or race series. Race series give kids who like to race an outlet for their energy and keeps travel and costs to a minimum. With five races within 1 hour drive time we keep kids out of cars and on their skis.

All participants receive a ribbon or medal and treats at each event. All races happen on the same day as adult races. Entry fees vary, but are usually under $7. J5/J4/J3 racers can purchase a CXC racing license for $7.00 to earn points through out the series with year-end awards for the top three in each division.In the MNYSS all kids that complete two races receive a year-end certificate from MYSL.
