Team Roles

Our team relies on a lot of parent support. There are a variety of roles parents can support with. Please consider helping out the team in any way you can.

Head Coach/Team Director - Matt Hayden
Sets the practice plans, and communicates with other teams and NICA, main contact person for the team.

Assistant Level 2/3 Coaches - Nate Bisco, Larry Dean, Dan Jones, Mike Lodl, Chris Cotter, Naomi Burke
Supports the head coach by leading practices, adventure rides, and pre-rides at races. Secondary contacts for the team. We can always use more Level 2/3 coaches.

Level 1 Coaches/Volunteers - Alisha Dean, Bill Huebsch, Kelly Bisco, Kelly Pinchart, Spencer Statz, Jennifer Hayden, Scott Sachtjen, Becky Blaschka, Travis Hunter, Eric Bass
Support Level 2/3 coaches and the head coach to create a safe, fun practice environment. Present at practices to cheer riders on, support positive behaviors, and help everyone stay safe. You DO NOT need to be a mountain biker to be a Level 1 Coach. You just have to be willing to help out. If you can ride a bike and are willing to ride at the back of a group of riders, you have what it takes to do this super important job! There are about 2-3 hours of online training and a small coaching certificate fee. The team will reimburse this fee if you desire.

Raffle Coordinator - Kristi Hall (kristihall523@gmail.com)
Organizes our yearly raffle. Hands out raffle tickets, collects money, point person for communication with NICA.

Volunteer Coordinator - ?
Organizes volunteers for race weekends and other events. At each race, we need a few people to transport some equipment, help set things up/tear things down, be present in our PitZone for riders, and help them get ready to ride and race.

Food Coordinator - Heather Cotter
At each race we provide the athletes with fuel and hydration on race day. We need someone to purchase these items (usually at Costco) and make sure that we have enough for each race. You would not need to be at every race, you just need to make sure we have enough food and water/gatorade.

Transportation Coordinator - ?
We will be traveling a fair amount to adventure rides and races. Not every parent will be able to drive to everything, so it would be nice to have someone be the point person for coordinating transportation. Helping each other get our riders to adventure rides and races if needed.
