The goal of the Nordic Ski Club of Fairbanks FXC Junior Racing Program is to provide a full service training program for young skiers based on the demands of the sport of Cross Country Skiing at the highest levels. We do this by providing a progression of developmentally appropriate training and competition opportunities where skiers are continually challenged to grow and develop as athletes and young people.
