We would like to congratulate these two athletes for being outstanding team players: Jenna Blasman and Marianne Leeson
The team spirit award is given to an athlete that:
Jenna Blasman (Slopestyle)
With a smile and positive attitude as contagious as hers its hard not to boost the team spirit in any situation. Jenna has jumped her career pretty quickly from her first World Cup start in March 2013 to an Olympic start at the 2014 Sochi Olympic Winter Games. Jenna is the one at the top of the hill making everyone laugh and smile while pushing herself and encouraging the other riders.

Qualified 6th into the finals at the Sochi Olympics and placed 16th overall.
5th at the 2015 FIS World Championships in Austria
Marianne Leeson (Alpine)
Marianne is part of a tight knit group of ladies on the Alpine Snowboard National Team. They all help push each other to do the best they can, while training or competing. Marianne’s attitude and strong determination to succeed has a positive impact, keeping the spirits high while being supportive of her teammates.
