The White Castle USA Luge Slider Search, using sleds on wheels to find future national team members and Olympians, will slide into Medway on May 16-17, 2026, at the McGovern Elementary School, 9 Lovering Street, Medway. 

White Castle, the nation’s first fast food chain, has been the exclusive sponsor of the Slider Search since 2017 and hosts the luge team’s off-season recruitment efforts. The sessions are free, and all participants receive a White Castle USA Luge Slider Search T-Shirt. 

USA Luge’s primary recruitment event, targeting boys and girls ages 10-13, will be held on the McGovern Elementary school grounds. Three clinic times are offered each day: 9 to 11 a.m., 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and 2 to 4 p.m. 

Slider Search graduates include Medway native and two-time Olympian Zack DiGregorio, who along with doubles partner Sean Hollander, placed eighth in men’s doubles luge at the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Games. DiGregorio will be on-site at the Medway Slider Search to coach participants and meet members of the community.
