Since 1997, the Monroe Cup has been awarded to the overall male and female winners of the two-race series for U12 athletes from the North Intermountain Division (ID, WY). The series serves as a qualifier for athletes in the North to compete against athletes in the South Intermountain Division (UT) at the IMD Championships.
The Monroe Cup celebrates legendary SVSEF Coach, Lane Monroe. Lane was the Program Director/Head Alpine Coach at SVSEF from 1970-1996 and also served as a U.S. Ski Team coach from 1973-1975 as the Men’s Special Team coach (1973-74) and Head Women’s Coach (1975-1976).
Award recipients’ names are engraved on the Monroe Cup Trophy, which is displayed in the SVSEF Training Center at Warm Springs.
