CAMTB Teen Trail Ambassador Program

This initiative provides a cohort-based internship model for junior and senior high school student-athletes who are interested in building their resumes while riding, connecting, and taking meaningful action with other California-based student-athletes. 

Can you believe our coaches and student-athletes logged over 3,400 hours of trail work in the 2024 season?

That’s like working 40 hours a week for 85 weeks! We’d like to extend a heap of gratitude to those of you who helped contribute to our TTC hours. At the NorCal League, we take pride in giving back to our trails, and we think this is one of the best ways to do it. 

Even though we don’t count Teen Trail Corps hours during the offseason, we encourage you to volunteer with your local trail advocacy organization. Please reach out to us if you have any questions about this.

During the race season, be sure that you log all of your TTC hours in the Pit Zone so that you and your team will be considered during the Teen Trail Corp Challenges.

Our NorCal Teen Trail Corps [TTC] program provides student-athletes, coaches, and teams opportunities to get involved in bike and trail advocacy in their communities. As mountain bikers, and outdoor enthusiasts in general, we believe in the importance of giving back in order to serve and protect the places we love to play. We also believe that volunteering to better the environment is instrumental in positive character development, so we are committed to providing avenues for our NorCal League family to get involved. In 2019 we began asking coaches to track their TTC bike and trail advocacy hours in the NICA Pit Zone so we could better understand the impact of this program; watching the numbers grow each year has been incredibly rewarding!
