There will be three different ski jumping events at the Winter World University Games, all held at the Olympic Jumping Complex in Lake Placid.

The first event will be the individual normal hill event, followed by a mixed team normal hill event, with the last event being a team normal hill competition.

For Nordic combined, there are scheduled to be four different events, with competition being held at Mount Van Hoevenberg and the Olympic Jumping Complex.

The first competition is due to be the normal hill 10 kilometres/5km event, followed by a normal hill mass start 10km/5km event, a team normal hill 2x2.5km event and capped off by a mixed team normal hill sprint 2x1.5km event.

"It’s an honour and a great opportunity for our athletes to compete in the Winter World University Games," said USA Nordic Sport chief executive Adam Provost.

"It gives our younger athletes an opportunity to compete internationally at venues that our athletes know very well.

"I’m excited to see them compete in Lake Placid."

The Winter World University Games is one of the largest winter multi-sport collegiate events in the world and will feature university students between the ages of 17 and 25 eligible to compete.

The 11-day competition is scheduled to take place from January 12 to 22.
