Coaches, Parents, Officials, & Racers,
Welcome to the 2022 OISRA Sportsmanship Program!


This program is put on at the OISRA level and participated in across member leagues. The purpose of the program is to encourage, promote and acknowledge helpful, considerate, sportsmanlike conduct on (and off) the hill. To learn more about the OISRA Sportsmanship Program click here: http://www.oisra.org/alpine/sportsmanship-program.html
Participation will require three elements as follows:
- A willingness by the racer to participate in the program
- Knowledge of ‘Your Responsibility Code’ (on-mountain rules)
- Exhibiting good sportsmanship actions and attitudes throughout the competitive season
Coaches, race officials, gatekeepers, and parents will monitor and make note of exemplary competitor conduct on race days. We will have two nomination portals one for peer to peer and one for coaches/officials. Prizes will be awarded for the top athletes who have earned the most points during the current racing season. In addition, the Annual Outstanding Snow Sportsperson Award (OSSA) will be awarded at the end of the season to the top boy and girl of each league within the OISRA who exemplify and exhibit virtuous snow sport-oriented behaviors.
2 Easy ways to cast your sportsmanship nominations:
- QR code at bottom of course day of race
- Link off this page to online form
There will be two nomination portals:
One point will be earned for each good sportsmanship action. An additional point can be earned for the athlete’s knowledge of the responsibility code. Consequently, this means that parents, volunteers, and coaches need to be familiar with the rules as well. As you become aware of good sportsman-like conduct on the hill, please stop that individual, ask for their name and ski team, and ask them a few questions so that you can effectively update the racer details on the Sportsmanship Nomination Form. Additionally, if you are not able to quickly access the Sportsmanship portal you can email details to Morgan Hartnell @ metrosportsmanship@gmail.com and I will submit the nomination for you.
