SL Course at the 2018 FIS Masters World Criterium in Big Sky, MT
The 2020-2021 FIS Masters Cup was due to kick off in Bariloche, Argentina. Due to COVID-19 restrictions the September 2020 event has been cancelled. Photo is from the FIS Masters World Criterium Event in Big Sky, MT 2018

Due to ongoing developments of COVID-19, the September FIS Masters races and training camp in South America are officially canceled for 2020.  The message from the FIS Masters Chairman read "Considering that the health and welfare of all participants are in the forefront and the priority of all stakeholders, the OC at Catedral/Bariloche (ARG), in conjunction with the National Federations of Argentina, Brazil and Chile, decided to cancel the South-American FIS Masters Cup competitions scheduled to take place in Bariloche September 15th to 20th, 2020. The OC expressed its desire to organise those competition in the next year and we hope to be able to welcome all of you to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Bariloche and the resort of Cerro Catedral/Alta Patagonia."

At this point, the races scheduled later November through April remain on the 2020-2021 FIS Masters Calendar. We encourage racers to continue monitoring the COVID-19 restrictions and guidelines for both domestic and international travel as the season progresses. At this point it is recommended by the CDC that non-essential international travel be avoided. U.S. Ski and Snowboard is developing COVID-19 recommendations and will be posting updates at usskiandsnowboard.org/covid-19

As a result of the FIS Masters race cancellation, the masters race training camp scheduled prior organized by Lisa Ballard is also cancelled. See more of Lisa's masters camps and more training opportunities as the Masters Training Page. We will continue to update the training page as information becomes available. A sampling of the domestic 2020-2021 Fall/Winter Training Camps is posted below.
