XC BRAGG CREEK SKI AND BIKE SOCIETY

Bike Programs

From Coach Nikita: Our fall mountain bike program wrapped up another great season in Bragg Creek. Over six weeks, 100 young riders and 30 volunteer coaches took to the trails to build skills, confidence, and community on two wheels.

The focus, as always, was on safety, fun, and skill progression—helping kids from all backgrounds discover a love of mountain biking. This season brought plenty of smiles, new friendships, and a few muddy tires to show for it.

We were lucky to enjoy perfect fall weather, with all six sessions running as planned. A big thank you goes out to the West Bragg Creek trail crews for keeping the trails in great shape, and to the other riders who share the space with patience and encouragement.

And finally, thanks to our incredible volunteer coaches—the heart of this program. See you on the trails in the spring.

Nordic Programs

Volunteers

Snow is flying and XCBC will be starting all of our Nordic Programs in a few short weeks. Over the years we have supported young athletes from age 5 to age 18 and beyond with many of our older participants becoming Jr Coaches and sharing their experiences and expertise. Jr Coaches and Parent Volunteers are an integral part of XCBC. Volunteer Roles include: Coaches, Jr Coaches, Event Volunteers (the Alberta Youth Championships are just around the corner!), Program Subcommittee Roles, and Board Member roles. If you would like to volunteer with XCBC email programdirector@xcbraggcreek.ca to learn more.

Rec Ski

This year we are excited to be re- introducing our Rec Ski program! This program is for skiers age 10-16 who have either finished Jackrabbits and love being outside, skiing with friends, and want to continue developing their skills in a fun and social environment, or skiers who are new to the sport, and want to develop their skills but are outside the Jackrabbits age limits. There will be instruction, with emphasis on technique but the Rec Ski Program’s goal is to build proficient lifelong skiers who love the sport. There is still room to join Rec Ski, visit xcbraggcreek.ca to register now!
