SWATWELCOME S.W.A.T. RACE FANS!
Welcome to S.W.A.Team Racing, one of the most successful junior race programs in the Midwest.
Southeastern Wisconsin Alpine Team Racing, Inc., was incorporated by the State of Wisconsin on July 18, 2001 as a "corporation organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes to train amateur athletes in the sport of ski racing under Chapter 181 of the Wisconsin State Statues, within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986."
Join us for a season of FUN and RACING! S.W.A.Team Racing for the 2011-12 race season will offer two Alpine Ski Race Programs for all ability levels 6* years old through high school. Athletes abilities, motivation, goals, competitive drive and other characteristics help the coaches determine along with the parents which program will be best for their child. We take proficient skiers and train them to compete in recreational downhill ski races offered in Southeastern Wisconsin. Please review the programs our club offers on our web site to help you decide if our race training program is for your athlete and to help you determine which program you would like to enroll your athlete in. Some athletes who are looking for higher competition in USSA & FIS programs also fit into our program.
All teams have individual programs coached by certified coaches under the direction of Program Director/Head Coach, George Loomans. The S.W.A.Team Racing program has produced numerous Wisconsin Junior Race (WJR) League champions, Junior Olympians through our USSA Programs and Wisconsin High School state individual champions along with High School Championship teams over the past 13 years. Our talented and experienced coaching staff is second to none in the Midwest.
The Club staff works very closely with all facets of Alpine Valley Ski Resort management to ensure that, while providing the athletes with all necessary training opportunities, the impact on the skiing and riding public is kept to a minimum. On race days, it may be necessary to close a trail, or a portion of a trail to ensure the safety of the racers and the public.

Our programs DO NOT OFFER ANY "Learn to Ski or Ski Better" ski lessons. If your athletes skiing skills have out grown traditional ski school lessons and they are interested in recreational competion, then you have come to the right site and may want to consider our programs.
* For Children ages 6 and under joining SWATeam programs the Class 5 & 6 Coaches will require a 'skiing' parent/guardian to be present & participate during all practices and on RACE DAY to assist in getting the younger ones on and off the chair lifts safely. This means the parent/guardian will have to purchase a lift ticket at Alpine Valley Resort or ski area hosting races or have a season pass to Alpine Valley. Please contact our office for further instructions on requirements for these younger athletes. THANK YOU!
