John Farra says...

"I want to encourage you to renew your USSA and FIS licenses by June 1 so that you will be included in the first FIS list which is expected to be run on July 1, 2010. At USSA Congress meetings last week, rules were passed that require being on the latest USSA and FIS points lists to be able to receive prize money and points for the races you enter. Last year this posed a challenge for a few top athletes in the early season races since it can take a month or more to process the FIS component. It can take even longer if you are a foreigner and need to use your home nation to process. Only a few athletes are on the 2008 summer list which means if someone decides to compete in the Southern Hemisphere races or October FIS races, they would not be seeded and could miss scoring opportunities."
