Waivers: 

• If you are not a returning team member because you are new to the team, then you must have a parent fill out the league waiver found here:  https://nationalmtb.org/agreement-to-participate-and-release-of-liability-form/  Once completed, forward the confirmation document to jgarkey@hotmail.com. We cannot see the waiver in the NICA system, so the confirmation email is required. 
• If you are a returning student or coach team member then you must be fully registered and paid in the pitzone prior to your first fun-ride, this is a league requirement.

Parent/Guardian Riders: if you are a parent/guardian and want to ride with the team to better understand what your child is getting involved with you are welcome to ride once with a waiver. Per league rules for subsequent rides you must be certified with the league. Email Crystal (crystalo888@att.net) or Jay (jgarkey@hotmail.com)  for details. We love our involved parents but please know our responsibility is to ensure the safety of your child, and will let you be responsible to be fit enough to ride with us, and to not get lost.
