Become a NICA Coach

Want to make a difference?

We’re always looking for great parents and members of the community to coach with us!

We welcome coaches of all cycling experience levels - no coaching experience is required! You can commit to practices as often as twice a week, or just once a month. Over time, you can become a Level 1, 2, or 3 NICA coach.

When starting out, you can become a Level 1 coach by registering in the NICA Pit Zone, clearing a background check, and completing the required online coaching courses.

Levels 2 & 3 are similar, but require first aid training, field work, and an in-person training with NCICL Team Supporters

Also, you don’t have to be a coach to get involved with NICA!

The most rewarding part for me has been seeing our riders grow with each practice both individually and as a team, setting and achieving personal goals under the leadership of supportive, trained, and dedicated volunteer coaches.”

Joshua Harrington, Team Director

“It only took one or two practices with the Hellbenders to realize this is so much more than Mountain Biking, its teaching these riders about life”
