Teen Trail Corps
As mountain bikers, the trails are our playground.
The Teen Trail Corps program provides NICA student-athletes the opportunity to get involved in trail maintenance efforts and to use their voices to advocate for increased trail access. At NICA, we believe that when we give back to our trails…
- We become more connected to the community where we ride.
- We grow as people through our service, and we find our voices through showing up at local meetings to speak up for more bike access.
- We inspire people in our communities to want to help – that could be as part of your team, as a local advocate, as a sponsor, or with access to more places to ride.

You can make an impact in your community
Check out this article by NICA’s Phil Waidner to get inspired and learn about the impact that NICA student athletes are having on trails and communities around the country.
“If we speak more about why mountain biking is beneficial and talk about getting better trails, there is a higher chance of it actually happening.”
Let’s get started!

“Young people BELONG in the advocacy space. As members of communities, youth provide both hope for the future, and the needed perspectives of how policies impact the younger in our populations.”
