JUNIOR TEAMs 

The MT Alpha Junior & Development programs are SMALL and LIMITED in numbers.  This is for both safety and so that we can provide as much one-on-one time as possible to really develop their MTB skills. It's a girls+ only program (including coaches!), which give the girls+ the confidence to push themselves and have fun doing it! This space creates a team dynamic among the girls+; a very special thing. The girls+ will learn basic-to-advanced technical skills on their mountain bike (depending on ability level), gain knowledge about bike mechanics and riding in the mountains, and creating new friendships. Rides will last 1.5-2 hrs and will be focused on skill development and having fun.​

JUNIOR ALPHAS
ADVENTURERS: Ages 7 to 12
$50/session, $100 full season
  • Junior membership includes four practices (we are offering two sessions in 2026), held on Tuesdays 5:30 - 7:30 PM in the summer months. These practices will focus mainly on mountain bike skills and riding trails together, but will also include lessons on trail etiquette, bike maintenance, and goal setting.
  • Juniors will receive team tech t-shirts. 
  • Parents of juniors are asked to volunteer one day (approx. 2 hours) per season to help instructors on the trails. 
  • As the season progresses, coaches will discuss adjusting goals so each girl feels empowered to reach their goal, and also understands that goals can be changed based on unforeseen circumstances (e.g. absences, some skills being more challenging than expected, life changes, etc.)

JUNIORS-WILD (Wonder, Integrity, Leadership, Determination): Ages 13 to 16
$80/session (not including overnight pricing)
  • WILD membership includes six practices dates TBD in the summer months. These practices will focus mainly on mountain bike skills and riding trails together. There will be one optional practice on a Tuesday, where the girls+ are asked to coach younger Alphas-- this is to build community, bike skills, and so the WILD team members can build leadership skills by being a role model for the Juniors. 
  • WILD team members will receive team jerseys. 
  • The WILD team will have the option for an adventure weekend in Sun Valley, ID. Details coming.
  • Parents of all juniors are asked to volunteer one day (approx. 1.5 hours) per season to help instructors on the trails. 
  • WILD team members will discuss setting goals for the season, and create their own goal for a local trail. As the season progresses, coaches will discuss adjusting goals so each girl feels empowered to reach their goal, and also understands that goals can be changed based on unforeseen circumstances (e.g. absences, some skills being more challenging than expected, life changes, etc.)
