Event information
2017 Blue Cow Cup
25-years-on: the Blue Cow Cup continues to serve as an important platform for all junior skiers to either test-the-water - or show the others how it’s done!
Competing in Alpine and skier-cross, this event (and a hand-full of others like it) has proved to be the testing ground where nearly ALL of Australia’s National team honed their skills and/or added the first silver to the trophy cabinet.
Taken seriously – but not too seriously, first-time competitors (in under 10 and under 12 age-groups) are allowed to compete WITHOUT a race license, giving participants invaluable competitive experience alongside their contemporaries.
Only SSA licensed Skiers (in under 14 and under 16 age-groups) can compete in the SSA Children’s series however.
