How do I become part of the Luge Team?
USA Luge recruits children as young as ten years of age for their developmental team. The Verizon – USA Luge Slider Search serves as USA Luge’s national recruitment tool. It visits cities across the country and gives boys and girls, ages 11 – 14, the opportunity to try luge and learn more about the sport. USA Luge coaches and athletes are on-hand to provide instruction on how to luge as well as test participants physical abilities. Current USA Luge World Cup Team members Brian Martin and Tony Benshoof were recruited through the Verizon – USA Luge Slider Search. To learn more, visit USA Luge’s website at www.usaluge.org.
