The Lindsey Vonn Foundation is proud to honor the legacy of Erich Sailer—Lindsey's longtime coach—through the creation of the Erich Sailer Ski Scholarship. Erich was more than a coach; he was a mentor, a dream-builder, and a legend whose influence shaped the lives of countless young athletes, including Lindsey herself. His unwavering belief in hard work, perseverance, and the power of potential left an indelible mark on the ski racing world and on the hearts of all those he guided.

The Erich Sailer Ski Scholarship supports girls ages 8-18 in alpine ski racing—athletes who are chasing their skiing dreams with the same passion and determination Erich inspired in his athletes. By supporting this scholarship, you help carry forward Coach Sailer's legacy—opening doors, nurturing confidence, and empowering the next generation of young women to believe in themselves the way he always believed in them.
