ALOHA SOUTHRIDGE SKI TEAM

Hello and welcome to the Aloha-Southridge ski team website. Here you will find all sorts of information about our team, along with pictures and videos to give you a glimpse of what we do and how we do it. If you are an intermediate to advanced skier, we hope you will consider joining the ski team. Never raced before? Doesn't matter. We'll teach you! In fact, about 80% of the people that ski in our high school league had not raced before signing up. We work hard, but we also play hard and have a lot of fun. Click here for a glimpse of what high school ski racing is all about. If you think you might be interested in joining the team or just have some questions, please don't hesitate to contact head coach Sean Mailey: sean1mailey@gmail.com 503-259-5400 (work phone for coach Mailey, who is a teacher at Southridge........just ask the receptionist for Sean Mailey and they'll forward your call to his desk)

A little team history: Aloha HS and Southridge HS are actually two separate ski teams that compete in the metro league. When Southridge HS opened their doors in 1999, roughly half the members of the Aloha ski team ended up transferring to Southridge. And since that time, the two teams have done everything as one entity, sharing the same coaching staff, training facilities, fundraising efforts, etc. Our team is looking for skiers of intermediate ability or above, have a strong work ethic, and don't mind having FUN! Past ski racing experience is a plus, but the majority of new people that join our team have never actually raced.

DOUBLE METRO CHAMPIONS in 2009!
Both the Southridge boys and girls teams won the Metro League Championship in 2009, first time in school history. This was the 3rd metro league title for the Southridge girls team in the last 5 years, and the first metro league title ever for the boys team. The STATE championship races didn't go as expected with several racers crashing in tough conditions at Mt Bachelor. Aloha HS had just a few racers on the roster in '09, so they are in a rebuilding process. We also had one racer from International School Beaverton (ISB) and one racer from Arts & Communication (ACMA) on our team roster this past season.

The future looks bright for the 2009-10 season. We lost some valuable skiers to graduation, but we are a very deep & motivated team, and we look forward to getting after it this coming winter. Traditionally we get more than a dozen of our racers attending summer ski camp at Mt Hood, and that is always a HUGE benefit that some high school teams don't take advantage of. We are lucky to have the only summer ski area in the nation so close by.
