| FEDEX Ski Team |
|
The FedEx Ski Team is the racing arm of the FedEx Ski Club. The ski
team races against the other airlines ski teams at two races during
the ski week. The races are the slalom and the giant slalom. There are
actually two FedEx Ski Teams. There is the "A" Team and the
"B" Team. The difference between the teams is the difficulty
level of the race course and the skill level of the skier. The "A"
Team is the higher skill level. An "A" racer is a veteran
racer who has a high skill level and is usually an expert skier. A "B"
level racer usually has a skill level of an intermediate level or above.
If you want a high octane race course you race "A" level.
If you want a course that has challenge to it but is a little more racer
friendly, you race "B" level. Most everybody starts at "B"
level. For those who are new to ski racing and want to try it. There
is a beginner’s race. You can get a taste of what racing is like.
The team captain determines racer placement on the teams. Both male
and female teams compete at both levels. Any ski club member is eligible
to race on the ski team.
