Cycling Accreditation & Coaching
Colchester Rovers Cycle Club Youth Group is constantly developing both in the opportunities it offers young people and also in the group of dedicated coaches and volunteers that we have attracted. We have a large team of dedicated coaches trained to British Cycling Level 1 and 2, as well as several discipline-specific qualifications.
The club prides itself in creating an environment suitable for all the family.
The Club is accredited to the British Cycling Go-Ride Scheme and also has the prestigious Club Mark status, the main benefit of this is that the Club receives support from British Cycling regional and national coaches. We are very fortunate in that our young riders have regular access to the Northern Gateway circuit as well as to the outside cycling velodrome at Welwyn and the indoor Olympic Velodrome at Stratford. We also run Go-Ride events which are ideal for newcomers to cycling at all levels. At the top end of the sport we have seen our young riders go on to achieve major success at a national level and in other sponsored clubs and teams.
