New SoCal High School Mountian Bike League needs your help!
Hello, I am part of a group that is starting a High School Mountain Biking League. I need contacts in local high schools, teachers and students that are interested. We are a partner of the very successful NorCal league. Please contact me via private message.
The SoCal High School Mountain Bike League works to establish and maintain safe, quality high school mountain bike programs. The League is responsible for establishing a climate that will: • Provide students who have the desire to mountain bike with the coaching and camaraderie that will help them achieve both competitive and non-competitive cross-country mountain biking goals in a safe and enjoyable manner; • Develop an awareness of what it is to be an amateur athlete that is both gracious and respectful to their community; • Create an environment in which they may discover new friendships and find role models; • Guide students towards learning new skills and disciplines, and spread the foundations of mountain bike racing across the U.S.; • Foster a responsible attitude toward the use of trails and wilderness; • Promote the value of cycling to our community as a mode of transportation and as a life long sport. Info on the NorCal League: http://www.socaldirt.org/ Sign up for more information at www.socaldirt.org! thanks. Patrick

This is very cool. I hope that it works out and you have enough interest to get a league started.

Sorry if I sounded pessimistic. Most of our students live at or below federal free/reduced lunch incomes.
With sponsorships, though, it's another story. |

 Sponsorships would be cool thoguh  Its like an opportunity to make this a carer somewhat.. If it does become a race team, it could potentially offer chances to get scholarships to mountain biking schools with teams, and it can only go from there..

Whatever happened to the track team?
The last thing I need is a bunch of highschoolers embarassing me out on the trail. Your request for help is denied..
