The NorCal High School Mountain Bike League’s annual Leaders’ Summit brings together
coaches, assistant coaches, ride leaders, and parent volunteers—both new
and experienced—to develop skills and knowledge, share strategies, and
build community. This conference will promote a holistic approach to coaching
that creates an environment in which young people can grow and thrive. This is
a great opportunity to spend a weekend in the company of peers and energize for
the upcoming season.
