Our History

decades of elite ski racing coaching
Established in 1965, the Buck Hill Ski Racing Team has a legacy of developing top-ranked ski racers who proudly hail from the Buck Hill Ski Area in Burnsville, Minnesota.
For decades, Ski Hall of Fame coach Erich Sailer led the program, where thousands of young skiers honed their skills. Throughout the years, the distinguished list of alumni has included Olympians, World Cup winners, USA Ski Teamers, NCAA Champions, and countless nationally-ranked racers.
From the beginning, the team has been blessed with an exceptional training arena at the Buck Hill Ski Area. The area has consistently prioritized the team’s needs through lift ops, snowmaking, and hill space in support of the team.
But possibly the greatest asset has been the tremendous coaching staff that has taught racers the joy of racing.
Today the team continues to evolve and innovate, seeking to keep pace with world leading programs. Team leadership focuses on values of effort, grit and courage while executing “sport plans” specific to each age groups’ training needs.
Our FUTURE
BUILDING ON THE LEGACY
At Buck Hill, we are constantly pushing the limits and innovating in the sport of ski racing. In doing so, our core values of effort, grit and courage are a big part of our day-to-day training plans.
These values are at the core of our coaching staff and athletes. In addition, everyone at Buck Hill shares the same dream at some level, and we are all working hard together collectively as an organization and with our partners to keep pushing the Buck Hill Ski Racing Team to higher levels as we enter the future of our sport.
