Race Credits
Race Credit Requirements
PPST relies on club members to help run our events and races. Most of these tasks count as 1 race credit. Each family is required to earn 5 race credits through the season. Families with U8/Race1 only racers are required to work 3 race credits. In addition to the 5 or 3 race credits due, ALL families are required to have at least 1 adult work the Ski and Snowboard Sale. If you are unable to work the sale you will be charged a fee of $250.00.
If you are unable to work all of your race credits, you can pay a fee per each credit missed of $200.00 per credit
How to Earn Credits
- Sign-up via our online program which will be made available and announced well in advance of the event. Look for a club e-mail.
- You must report for your shift on time and complete the entire shift. Shifts may be shared by adult members of the same family - please notify the appropriate Area Supervisor (i.e. Head Gatekeeper, Chief of Course, etc.).
- A Race Area Supervisor will be assigned to each job type. You are required to report to that Race Area Supervisor at the beginning and end of your shift so the appropriate paperwork can be completed.
- Race workers must sign-in on the Worker Sign-in Sheet and complete a USSA Waiver & Liability Release form for each race. These will be available at the ATC on race day. AO's do not need to sign the USSA Waiver & Liability Release form but everyone should sign the Race Worker Credit sheet. The completed forms will be submitted to NHARA at the completion of each race.
- If you sign up for a job and are unable to work it is your responsibility to find a replacement.
If you have any questions regarding the sign-up process or the status of your race credits, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Julia Pothen or Erin Doyon at: signup@patspeakracing.org
