Yukigassen as a sport has only formally been played in the United States since 2001, but Americans have been throwing snowballs at each other since before this country was founded! Combining the quintessentially American pastime of snowball fighting with the familiar and beloved capture the flag, USA Yukigassen is committed to spreading this amazing game around the country, and is focused on sustainably growing, promoting, and governing the sport of yukigassen in the United States.

With the rise of yukigassen groups around the country, we’re committed to connecting those disparate communities, providing a national infrastructure, and creating a centralized hub for clubs and communities around the country to work together and grow the game.

USA Yukigassen is actively in dialogue with international organizations to secure recognition from Yukigassen IAY, the sport’s international governing body as the official sanctioning body for Yukigassen in the United States!
