Adult Volunteer Registration Opens March 1st

 The Davis High Mountain Bike Team is successful because of parent volunteers. Parents are required to get their child and their bike to and from practices and races or to arrange their own carpool with others from the same practice group. Parents are required to volunteer at 1 race or 1 major team event. Parents are required to volunteer for 1 shift through NICA at 1 race during the season.
     
Parents can ride with the team at practices if they become a NICA Registered Coach. Becoming a licensed coach involves registering with NICA Pitzone, paying a $25 registration fee, completing and paying for a background check, and completing NICA required training courses such as first-aid, abuse, risk management, student-athlete coaching, on the bike training, etc. No adults can ride with the team unless they have their NICA Coach License.

 

o   There are 3 levels of coach licenses. An adult must have a Level 1 Coach License to ride with the team at any practice. All of the training is completed online for a Level 1 Coach.

o    A Level 2 Coach License is required if you want to lead out on a ride during practices (and if you want a discount at Biker’s Edge). A Level 2 License requires online training as well as a NICA approved First Aid/CPR course, an On the Bike Training Course, and 20 volunteer hours with the students. (So basically you can start out as a Level 1 Coach and then after completing 20 hours of riding with the team, you can become a Level 2 Coach if you have met all the other requirements). 

o   A Level 3 Coach License requires a Leaders Summit Seminar, 80 volunteer hours, in addition to the other requirements.

 To get registered as a NICA Registered Coach to ride with the team at practices, complete Steps 1 through 3 on the tabs above.

  • Each adult planning to ride with the team needs to register on TeamSnap. If you are already on Teamsnap from last year, you do not need to re-register. Our team communicates about practices and races through TeamSnap. Students and adults will mark availability for practices on TeamSnap. It is easiest to register on a computer. Click on this link to get started: https://go.teamsnap.com/forms/424347
  • Please upload a close-up portrait of your face without a helmet or sunglasses. After completing the TeamSnap registration, download the TeamSnap app on an electronic device and log in.

Join the team communication app: slack. We are using slack instead of GroupMe this year for communication about practices.
