Two of our Eastern atheltes have qualified for the Nordic Combined Junior World Championships in Whistler, Canada at the end of this month:
Evan Nichols (19) placed 2nd and Caleb Zuckerman (17) placed 3rd in both Junior World Qualifiers this weekend. They will join their teammates Niklas (1st place – 19 from Steamboat) and Carter (currently in Norway – 19 from Alaska) in representing the USA. Both Evan and Caleb grew up jumping on the Ford Sayre jumps and now travel throughout the US and Europe (and soon to Canada) to compete for the US. The opportunities that Jumping and Nordic Combined can offer are amazing.

Evan and Niklas will also be representing the USA in the World University Games this coming weekend (Friday, Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday) in Lake Placid, NY. It is an incredible opportunity for your kids to see world-class athletes jumping in the East.
