The USASA is proud to host the 2nd Annual USASA Golf Classic Sept 17th at McHenry Country Club!
This fun charity golf event helps support kids in sport, the development of future athletes on the world stage, and the education of coaches, judges, and officials. Participation in sports has been shown to be a critical component in the development of today’s youth. USASA events create a positive environment to help develop self-esteem, encourage problem-solving, teach teamwork and good sportsmanship, and build confidence in young people.
In this current environment, nonprofit organizations need your support more than ever, the USASA included.
Your support will help fund programs such as:
*Membership subsidies for our youngest competitors
*Membership discounts for our US Active Military and Veterans
*Education development programs for coaches, judges, and officials

Due to new compliance standards and legislative oversight of SafeSport education and third-party background screening, all USASA adult members are now required to also hold a US Ski & Snowboard membership in the same membership category they are represented in at USASA. Once SafeSport adult compliance requirements are met US Ski & Snowboard will notify USASA and your USASA membership will become active. These new standards provide National Governing Body oversight for adult members and allow for a more transparent, secure, and safe system for our athletes.

Thank you for participating in the 2020-2021 USASA competition season. This year had its share of challenges, and we are grateful for your commitment and flexibility in working through them with us. Together we wore masks, we socially distanced, and we helped keep our communities safe. It was unfortunate that we were not able to host our USASA National Championships for the second year, but we now know that keeping our communities and their families safe was the right call. Looking forward, we are excited to make the 2022 National Championships one of the most amazing events ever!

The 2021 USASA Annual Silent Auction is all about our USASA community. It’s a celebration of our athletes, our perseverance, and the light at the end of the tunnel.
For the second year in a row, the USASA National Championships have taken a back seat to the pandemic. Through this experience, we have proved that we are flexible and together we can rally around the regional communities of USASA. To culminate the experiences we have shared we are launching our second annual USASA Silent Auction to celebrate what we have all been through and set the stage for a brighter future for USASA.
The funds raised in this Annual Silent Auction will support the Mission and Vision of USASA. We have several new initiatives in light of the past season and the need to provide additional support to our regional series who have been greatly impacted by COVID-19.

Paralympic Gold Medalist, Noah Elliot, tweaking on Winterstick's custom fleet.
The 2014 Paralympics were on TV as seventeen-year-old Noah Elliott laid in his hospital bed recovering from yet another surgery as part of his battle with osteosarcoma cancer. Chemo treatments had been successful but the damage had been done to his leg and this latest surgery fused his leg with metal rods and bolts in such a way that running and his beloved skateboarding were off the table, forever.
