New Year’s Blast Biathlon Race Results

Biathlon combines cross country skiing with rifle marksmanship. It takes these two very opposite sports, puts them together to make this fun and challenging Olympic event. MVBA has a program for both juniors and adults. We are lucky here in the Methow Valley to have a 10 lane biathlon range with metal targets and direct access to the MVSTA trails.

In addition to the Methow Valley Nordic Team’s mission and goals, MVBA also strives to:

• Promote the sport of biathlon for both juniors and adults.
• Teach rifle safety, sportsmanship, discipline, focus, and self control.
• Expose kids on the MVNT to biathlon and allow them to experience the sport.

• Junior members (age 9-19 yrs) must also be a member of the Methow Valley Nordic Team.
