Ontario Cycling will be hosting a Rising Stars MTB Camp May 11-12 at Harwood Ski & Bike. The camp is focused on developing athletes (ages 13 – 16) who are racing at OCup level with aspirations to race at the Canada Cup and national level events within the next 1-2 years. Skills will include:
Basic Cycling Skills provides an opportunity for “on-bike” practice in skill teaching and analysis, coaching, and provided lesson plans. The program is simple, based on several pre-designed lesson plans, and adaptable to participants' varying skill and ability levels. The program's focus is on having participants develop skills that are basic to MTB, BMX, and Road, in a controlled, off-road, off-trail setting such as a sports field or parking lot.
The Basic Cycling Skills course is cross-listed with the Intro to Competition & Community Initiation NCCP coaching stream.
