How joining works

No tryouts, no bench, and no mystery process. The first step is simply letting us know your rider is interested.

1

Send the form

Tell us who your rider is, what grade they are in, and the best way for a coach to reach your family.

2

A coach follows up

One of the head coaches will reach out personally to answer questions about practices, gear, safety, timing, and what the season looks like.

3

Join us for a trial practice

Come ride with us before you commit. See what practice actually looks like, meet the coaches, and let your rider get a feel for the team before going all in.

4

Register in PitZone

When your family is ready, we will help you through NICA PitZone registration, waivers, and team communication setup.

5

Start riding

New riders ease in with coach support. Racing is available when they are ready, but every rider has a place.

Not sure whether your bike, schedule, or experience level is a fit? Ask anyway. That is exactly what the first conversation is for.

Start the Conversation

This isn't just a bike team.
It's a community.

Whether your rider has never touched a trail or is already racing, BrentwoodMTB is built around one idea: the more kids on bikes, the better.

No Tryouts. Everyone Rides.

Every rider who joins has a place on our team. Beginner to advanced, 5th grade to 12th — if you want to ride, you belong here. We don't cut. We don't bench. We grow.

Built for Growth

NICA's proven youth development model builds resilience, confidence, and character on and off the bike. Our coaches are invested in your rider as a person, not just an athlete.

A Family Affair

BrentwoodMTB runs on families. From race weekends to team dinners, parents and coaches build friendships that last well past the season.
