Find & Join a Team
The Colorado League includes teams across the Rocky Mountains with participating schools in Colorado, New Mexico, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Composite teams are area-based teams with several schools working together. Individuals can participate in the Colorado League, but it’s even more fun to have a team to train and race with.

Whether you are a student or coach, the League is here to help you form a team at your local high school or in your area. Administrators, teachers, parents, students, and community members can all start a cycling club. Extensive cycling experience is not necessary — one should simply have the desire to introduce youth to the sport of mountain biking.
