Dear Students and Parents,
Welcome to the Salt Lake City area cross-country
mountain bike team sign-up. Our coaching
staff represents three high school teams with boys and girls 9th – 12th grade. We have found success in numbers and have
combined our coaching assets and our students in the SLC area to promote
camaraderie, build teamwork skills, and ensure that everyone has a great
time! As a team we work with everyone
from beginners to experts. Every student
is involved and nobody sits on the sidelines.
The coaching staff’s highest goal is to
provide student athletes with the direction that will help them achieve
competitive success and personal development.
Financial
scholarships and short-term bike loaner programs are available. If you are a student who shows a desire, we
will find a way. Contact Coach Drew and
we will make it happen!
