Support Athlete Scholarships

There are 2 different types of athlete scholarships open to all team members. The application process is held both in the Spring and Summer each year and we have granted over $100k in scholarships to-date! 

Coach Support

The Foundation gives financial assistance to the team’s 85 full- and part-time coaches.

​

     We support coaches so they can excel on the hill. We provide stipends for health and wellness programs, equipment needed, and financial support for ongoing certifications and education.

Capital Works

Our Capital Works fundraising has provided us with the opportunity to create a Training Arena that consists of  5 dedicated homologated trails with dedicated snowmaking. This gives us the capacity to make snow early, control the snow surface and have dedicated hill space open only to the Northstar Team athletes.
