Opening doors for mountain bike riders who otherwise would not be able to race with a team is a main focus of our mission of getting more kids on bikes! The scholarship(s) will include:

• VAHS racing fees for Spring / NICA racing fees for Fall

• Fredericksburg Composite MTB team fees for current season

• Fredericksburg Composite MTB team jersey

• 
  

To be eligible for the scholarship, you must meet all criteria required of any student athlete (for example: 9 years old, have a mountain bike in good working order, have a hydration pack or water bottle/cage). We now have loaner bikes for youth who want to ride but need a bike!

The Fredericksburg Composite team goals are simple: have fun riding and racing while including and valuing every rider. Fred Comp coaches are squarely focused on creating a team culture that is welcoming, safe, and fun! Mountain Bike racing is a unique team environment where there are no cuts and there is no bench; everyone rides and contributes to the team no matter their ability level. As the Student Athletes are learning skills and gaining fitness, coaches teach students how to respect each other, themselves, the environment, their trails, and their community.

Fredericksburg Composite is a youth development team: our goal is to get more kids on bikes and build the foundation for a lifelong enjoyment of riding and having fun outdoors. We do have two racing seasons for student athletes who enjoy racing, spring and fall, and we will prepare student athletes of all riding abilities for the racing scene. Student athletes who do not want to race will complete the same practices and the same training as the students who do race - we value and welcome every student athlete!
