Section V

New York State

  • NYSPHSAA: New York State Public High School Athletic Association. Fairport Schools are in Section V (five) of NYSPHSAA. "States" is the NYS Skiing Championship competition in which each section of the state sends their top 12 male and top 12 female skiers. States have often been held in Lake Placid. Section V has hosted the state races at Bristol and Harriet Hollister in recent years.

  • NYSSRA: New York State Ski Racing Association is the governing body for NY ski racing. You must be a member of NYSSRA to participate in certain races, e.g. Empire State Games. NYSSRA Championships are held in late February or early March in Lake Placid (Super sprints and 25km classic races). JO’s/JOQ’s: Junior Olympics and Junior Olympic Qualifiers. The Junior Olympics is a United States Ski Association (USSA) sponsored event for experienced competitive skiers. Skiers must qualify by racing in a specified number of JOQ races and must be a member of the USSA. More information can be found through the NYSSRA website.

  • ESG: Empire State Games. New York state’s version of the Olympic Games. The winter games are held in Lake Placid (how appropriate!). In order to participate, you have to qualify by racing in a couple of “ESG qualifiers”; a few are held in Rochester. The top 60 male and female high school student finishers in the qualifying races are invited to attend the games. The past few years, everyone who participated in the requisite number of qualifying races was invited to participate (there were less than 60 males and 60 females who raced in the qualifiers).
