COMPETITION REQUIREMENTS
Each PFSA athlete is required to participate in at least one competitive event during the season. Typically, at least one event each year is held at Seven Springs, and other regional competitions may be in West Virginia or Western New York. As competition levels increase, events may be national.
In order to participate in competitions, athletes must -- in addition to their registration with PA Freestyle -- also be registered with the national organization for their applicable discipline. We urge you to complete this registration immediately after registering with PA Freestyle. You can register for the membership at the following links:
***Athletes can train and compete in multiple disciplines. However, if an athlete wishes to compete in multiple disciplines, they must be registered for the appropriate national-level organization for that discipline (USSA or USASA).***
