PARENT INVOLVEMENT

Parents can play many roles in sports: current or former athlete, coach, fan, motivator, role model or critic. A few studies have shown that family members may influence an athlete’s involvement and achievement in sport more than coaches. Parents also are the first and most critical agents at socializing sports.  So engage! Have fun.  Get involved

Here are the steps to get started:

  1. Register with Ski East League.  You will be prompted to approve the necessary liability waivers, select the school to roster your athlete to his/her team, and set your preferences for receiving communications from the league and your coaches. 
  2. Read the brief tutorials below to take advantage of our new web site, powered by Sports Engine
  3. Follow @skieastracing on Twitter to get the most update info on race start times and live-timing
  4.  Volunteer for gatekeeping at one of our race events on either a Wednesday night at Blue Hills or on a Saturday at Ragged Mountain. 

The Registration "Parent Portal" is not currently available.

Communication

Email will be the primary method of communication from the league and coaches to parents and racers.  To ensure your athlete is receiving all league and coaches' communications:

  • Sign on to your SE account
  • Go to My Profile
  • Add athlete's email as additional address to parents account
  • Instruct athlete to look for and accept a confirmation email. 

Notes:

  • If your athlete created their own account, you should link their account to the parent account in My Profile. 
  • If you would prefer to receive communications via text, add TEXT under notification settings under Account Settings.
  • If your athlete would prefer to receive communication via text, ensure their phone number is added to their subprofile

Here are some additional help center articles regarding setting up notifications in the account, linking accounts, and adding a secondary email address.  

See below for additional details.
