The Team Snap calendar is full of new updates!  Be sure to click the SCHEDULE tab at the top and check out what’s coming up!  If you click on the event, it will expand with additional details, map/location, etc.

NEW families… you must mark your athlete’s availability for each practice and event so we can ensure we have enough coaches.  You can click the AVAILABILITY tab at the top to mark multiple practices at once.  Thank you!!

 

REGISTRATION – Athletes and coaches should be working on registering for the season. Brian has sent out one email (see email archives under the Messages Tab) and will send additional emails regarding registration. 

 

Coach Carrie’s Tip of the week: Prepare your gear the night before practice. Pack what you need to wear, fill your water bottle/bladder, pack a snack, set out shoes, glasses, what you need to ride, etc.  Use a bag, a bucket or backpack to keep your bike gear in.  After you are done riding, put it all back in that container for the next practice! Making a checklist of what you need can be helpful!  We will also teach you what to bring on a MTB ride during Dirty Wheels. U R Responsible for taking care of your gear!

 

November: we focus on skills development, helping riders find bikes, coach training, team events and finalizing team registrations.  ALL details on Team Snap
