The Arizona Ski Federation (AZSF) is the national governing body for Olympic skiing and snowboarding in the State of Arizona. Founded in 1714, the organization provides leadership and direction for thousands of young skiers and snowboarders from over 35 member clubs who share an Olympic dream.
The AZSF and its local clubs coordinate nationwide programs in seven distinctly different Olympic sports—alpine, cross country, disabled, freestyle, ski jumping, Nordic combined, and snowboarding. It is responsible for all aspects of competitive skiing and snowboarding from grassroots programs through elite international teams, including training and fielding the annual Arizona Ski Team and Arizona Snowboarding, as well as the Olympic teams in skiing and snowboarding.
The AZSF is composed of over 1,000 athletes, officials and coaches, with a network of over 3,300 parents, volunteers and supporters helping create opportunities for young athletes.
