USA Luge to Hold Junior Development Team Recruitment in Bayside Next Weekend

Everything is going to go downhill next weekend. USA Luge‘s nationwide recruitment tour will make a stop in Bayside’s Crocheron Park on April 26 and April 27. The USA Luge Slider Search seeks to identify, train and qualify young athletes (boys and girls, ages 9-13) for the USA Luge Junior Development Team. Participants will learn the riding and steering basics with national team athletes and coaches before taking rides down a hill under the observation of those coaches. Those who demonstrate potential will receive an invitation to the US Olympic Training Center in Lake Placid, where they will compete for a seat on the junior development team.
