Staff
While Spokane Nordic Ski Association is largely a volunteer organization, it does contract with several individuals to fulfill functions that are too specialized or intense to be met well within the time constraints of an all-volunteer board or volunteer members.

Ted Haskell took over the role of Junior Race Team Coach in July 2022. He served as the Transition Team (T-Team) Coach from 2019-2022. He brings many years of experience coaching youth sports including Nordic skiing, X-C running, and soccer in Spokane, Seattle, Freeman WA, and Laramie WY.
