PNWSEF is a non-profit organization that provides grants and scholarships for athletes and coaches in the Pacific Northwest. The Pacific Northwest Ski Education Foundation is one of the oldest endowments in the country for ski racing, dedicated to supporting athletes to compete at the highest level — they support competitive PNW alpine & nordic athletes, coaches, officials, and clubs in pursuit of skiing excellence. PNWSEF operates for the benefit of all division and USSS members in the PNW, serving about 2,500-3,000 junior racers and their coaches.

 

PNW Division student athletes and coaches can find continuing education scholarship information here.

 

The individual athlete grant program offsets travel expenses incurred for Alpine and Nordic competitions and training events for athletes traveling outside of the PNW division for Regional, National, or International events.  Click here for PNW Grant information.

 

PNWSEF is now providing coaches’ education funding for coaches who complete their US Ski and Snowboard Level 100 (and up) certification. Coaches grant programs offset expenses incurred to advance coaches’ certifications and officials’ training, whether paid for by clubs or by individual coaches. A link to the reimbursement form is coming soon, and will be here in the near future!
