This program is to promote high performance youth cycling. NEWS
Individual athletes must show they are dedicated to a training process beyond statewide competition. The funding criteria are to identify young cyclists with the perceived potential for National and International competition with the intent of subjecting the cyclists to Professional scouts and or giving them the tools to test their abilities at the Olympic Trials.
