Entry deadline now 22-Jan-25 as $100 M1 card available

The entry DEADLINE for the 2025 CAN FIS Masters Cup (FMC) & Eastern Canadian Masters Alpine Championships (ECMAC), being held from 2-3 February 2025, at Mont Garceau QC, has been extended by one week to Wednesday, 22 January 2025 at 1600 hours EST. This is due to a recent change by Ski Quebec Alpin (SQA) to accept a Master’s M1 single event card – see note under eligibility below.  More details can be found on the race notice.

Registration instructions:

  • First register and make payment on the Garceau URL. Note: The Garceau registration URL has a language toggle in bottom left.
  • Canadian FMC entries (FIS Entry Form ICR 215) must be sent by your Provincial/Territorial Sport Organization (PTSO) to raceentries@alpinecanada.org
  • Out of country entries (FIS Entry Form ICR 215) must be sent by your National Ski Association (NSA) to raceentries@alpinecanada.org

Note: If no official FIS Entry Form (ICR 215) is received from your NSA, you will not be eligible to race.

Eligibility:

  • FMC competitors must be 30 years or older on 31 December 2024 and must hold an active FIS Master’s code, both for Canadian & international competitors.
  • ECMAC competitors must be 18 years or older on 31 December 2024 & hold an active ACA Master’s National (MS or NC) card or ACA Masters M1 card or USSA Master’s card.

Note: Both Alpine Ontario Alpin (AOA) and SQA are now allowing the Master’s M1 single event card at a cost of $100 for ECMAC only. This eliminates the need to obtain an ACA Masters national (MS or NC) card or the FIS Masters card with associated insurance, athlete declaration, and medical certificate. World Cup Points (WCP) will still be awarded with the M1 card but only athletes with an ACA Masters national (MS or NC) card will qualify for a position on the Canadian Masters Alpine Team (CMAT).

For SQA racers, create or login to your SQA account. Click “Adhérer et payer/Ajouter un adhésion”, select region “Laurentides” and “Club de ski Garceau”, then click the “Categorie d’adhésion” and select “CAN Maitres_1 Competition (100.00$)” from the dropdown. An email request is then sent to SQA and the Club for approval; upon approval, you will receive an email back, at which point you must login again to SQA and make payment. If you require any help, please reply to this email.

For AOA racers, create an account or login to your existing SnowReg account, select your home club and then select the Masters Single Weekend Event card for a cost of $93.75 for SOD, NOD & NCD or $153.75 for LSDA members.

The M1 card is also available through AB Alpine at a cost of $170.

Silent Auction:

A silent auction will take place during the banquet on Sunday evening that includes:
