Who We Are

We empower youth to be joyful, confident winter enthusiasts by building inclusive communities that reduce barriers to cross-country skiing. 
 
MyXC (Minnesota Youth Ski League) is a network of local clubs in Minnesota and around the country, offering events and programs for skiers ages 4-15.  Clubs are entirely run by volunteers and we have easy-to-use educational resources to help all parents/grandparents/aunts/uncles gain confidence and become our vital volunteers!

Programs

MyXC offers two youth skiing programs, as well as a young-adult network that meet the interests and needs of all skill levels. Both youth programs are led by dedicated coaches trained to create a fun learning environment through our proven, research-based curriculum.
