Team Sprints

A team sprint is a two-person sprint relay. The first skiers on each team start together and race the sprint course, then hand off to their team-mates, who also ski the course. The second skiers then hand off to the first skiers who ski the course again. This is the event in which Alex Harvey and Devon Kershaw won the World Championships in 2011! CCC-endorsed events will offer an incentive award to all participants.

Team Sprint Hosting Requirements.
Midget boys start, classic mass start race.

Double Cross

An Xtreme X-Country event designed to enable skiers to apply their cross-country skills to challenging terrain in an environment of adventure and intra-group competition. CCC approved events will offer a free incentive award to all participants.

Double Cross Hosting Requirements.

Midget Championships

A provincial/territorial event designed to bring young skiers  together for a weekend of cross-country ski competition and fun, encourage achievement through team effort and encourage good ski technique.

Divisions with a bona fide "provincial' Midget Championships for elementary school age children will be provided with awards for each participant. 
If your division has a Midget Championships on its competition calendar, encourage your club to send a team.  If your division does not offer this event, perhaps your club would consider hosting it!

The above programs have been coordinated with the Track Attack program. The successful completion of any one of these events earns a skier one of a possible 15 Track Attack “targets”. Completion of all four earns the skier four targets. Ask your Coach and Club for information on the Track Attack Log.
