What is a Snowsports
Council?
In its most general case, a snowsports council is
an organization composed of clubs and individuals
who have continuing interests and objectives in common.
The interests may include race scheduling,
fundraising, social events, off-season sports, travel,
government affairs and communication, both internal
and with other entities. It is normally centered on
population centers because the travel distances required
for monthly meeting attendance is lessened.
Historically, the oldest councils operated independently
of national or regional organizations and then
joined the Far West Ski Association, (FWSA),
founded in 1930 as the California Ski Association.
The Far West Ski Association has ten councils
and they collectively make up the region that it calls
its service area, extending from Alaska to the southern
border and from the Colorado border to Hawaii.
New councils may be added at the discretion of the
FWSA Board of Directors if the candidate council
can be effectively served.
The original four councils in FWSA were the
Bay Area Snow Sports Council (formerly Bay Area
Council of Ski Clubs), Los Angeles Council of Ski
Clubs (formerly Southern Council), Central Council
of California (formerly a district of the California Ski
Association), and San Diego Council of Ski Clubs.
The Orange Council of Ski Clubs originated from the
Los Angeles Council in 1971. Northwest Ski Club
Council (formerly Portland Area Ski Club Council)
joined in 1982 and Arizona Ski Council in 1993.
Sierra League and Council (formerly Sierra Ski Racing
League) joined in 2002. The newest councils are
Intermountain Ski Council, joining in 2007, and the
National Brotherhood of Skiers - Western Region,
joining in 2018. NBSWR is a region of the National
Brotherhood of Skiers, one of the largest ski organizations
in the country.
The FWSA Council/Club Section lists all the
member clubs in each of the ten councils. The clubs
offer a wide variety of activities, which include not
only winter snowsports trips, but programs for all
seasons of the year. There are plenty of social activities
and the opportunity to support your community
through various projects. In addition, as a club
member, you become a member of the council and
Far West Ski Association, eligible for member benefits,
an extensive travel program, racing in the Far
West Racing Association, attending the Annual
FWSA Convention plus much more! Also, our councils
are part of the National Ski Council Federation,
which represents councils throughout the nation,
with its own activities and programs. Find a club
near you and visit a meeting. You'll be glad you did!
