TRUCKEE, Calif. — The Far West Ski Association (FWSA) is proud to announce the awarding of scholarships to 20 talented junior ski racers training at Tahoe-area resorts. These scholarships support young athletes dedicated to excelling in Alpine ski racing by offsetting the costs of training and competition.
This year’s scholarship recipients include:
The FWSA Scholarship Program annually provides financial support to racers within the Far West geographic region, helping them pursue their passion and alleviate the expenses associated with high-level ski training and competitions.
Scholarship recipients are evaluated using a comprehensive set of criteria, including:
In addition to fostering athletic growth, the program emphasizes long-term contributions to the skiing community and broader society.
FWSA extends its gratitude to its generous sponsors, including Whitefish Mountain Resort, Averill Hospitality (owners of The Lodge at Whitefish Lake and The Firebrand Hotel), Schure Sports, Inc. (makers of Karbon ski clothing), and the Far West Racing Association. Contributions from these partners, along with funds raised by the Far West Ski Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, enable the awarding of scholarships ranging from $250 to $1,000.
Since its founding in 1930, FWSA has remained a volunteer-driven nonprofit organization committed to advancing skiing and supporting the next generation of athletes.
