Who We Are.Our greatest strength is our youth. As a sponsor you’ll get to say that you are a supporter of a great youth development program in your community. We have high goals for each season, and our team has a great shot of making, even exceeding those goals. Our strength also comes from our involvement in the cycling community. We partner with other schools, teams and other organizations to promote mountain biking throughout our community. We are focused on building a strong mountain bike culture in Los Angeles.
High School Mountain biking is one of the fastest growing sports in the nation. Students will compete, at the regional and state levels. The SoCal league, alone, is the second oldest in the nation and has a robust calendar of five challenging races each season. Each race categorizes racers into, Fresh/Soph, JV, and Varsity for both boys and girls. There are team competitions and season long points races, to motivate athletes throughout the year.
Becoming a Sponsor. Sponsors are the backbone of competitive cycling from the highest paid professionals down to local weekend racing clubs. High School racing is no different. Our teams are volunteer run organizations, where all of the funding for racing comes from sponsors and parents. We are committed to providing students with the best possible racing experience, and in doing so we provide students with the best possible training, bikes, gear, nutrition and coaching. We need your help to do this. This is not a cheap sport, good racing bikes can be from a few hundred dollars to many thousands. Additionally, we send coaches to the league leadership conference, and pay for annual registration, in order for our students to compete; and each rider pays registration fees and the cost for transportation and housing. Students need proper riding gear and safety equipment, not to mention all the extra food they eat as their metabolism speeds up during the race season. We take donations in many forms, old bikes, gear and other donations can be helpful to our programs as well.
Please consider donating or becoming a sponsor.
