Alabama Cup Series
Join us in celebration for the fifteenth year of competition for the Alabama Cup. The Cup was started with the idea of attracting racers to the natural beauty and challenging rapids of the rivers in Blount County, Alabama. The three races held in Blount County are again proud to present the Alabama Cup series. We look forward to seeing old friends along with making new acquaintances as the series keeps going. The Alabama Cup would not be possible without the support of the area races, volunteers and you, the racing community. Each race contributes to making this award something worth racing for. The Alabama Cup awards will be presented at the conclusion of the Alabama slalom racing season at the Locust Fork Whitewater Classic. Good luck on the upcoming season!
