BIG MOUNTAIN WEST TEAM APP

Download TEAM APP from Apple or Google Play app store (free).  Log into the App and search for your team - which is:  USASA Big Mtn West.  If you do not have a smartphone, go to bigmtnwest.teamapp.com to sign up and view the App on line.  We will use TEAM APP throughout the season to post schedules, start lists, results and event updates. 

If you were a member last year, and have turned off your App for the summer, just open up the App, search for us again, and turn it on for the season to receive notifications.

The Team App is a great way to stay on top of the day on the hill, status of an event, or any changes during the event along with start lists, results and series updates. 

USASA COACHES

Submit names for each event for certified USASA Coaches by Thursday afternoon at 5PM to kraymer@usasa.org.  All coaches need to have proof of current credentials to be on course at USASA events.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES WITH USASA!

We could not make any of our events happen with the amazing support of our volunteers.  We need volunteers at each of our events and have a wide variety of positions inside and outside on course.  If you are interested in helping us please contact Kim Raymer.  Positions include:

Registration, Score Runners/Scoreboard, Lunches, Spotter, Start/Finish Referee, Starter, Assistant Starter and awards assist.  Participating as a volunteer is a great way to meet other parents, and to learn more about the details of the sport our athletes have chosen to pursue; we will teach you the way!  Please contact Kim Raymer if you are available for next weekend.
