06.15.08 - CCA Announces National Team Develop Project for MTB World Cups

Preamble:
Canada will host two rounds of the World Cup Mountain Bike series in 2008. It is an achievement in itself for Canada to have the best athletes in the world to come and take part in the last two stages of the World Cup before the Olympics. As a national federation we recognize it is our responsibility to do our utmost to
ensure that this event is a source of development for cycling in Canada. Following receipt of additional funds from Podium we are able to offer this development project through the Bromont National Training Center.

The Canadian Cycling Association recognizes the need to provide development opportunities (in all sports) on the international stage for our athletes. We must support the transition of our best athletes from junior to the senior category we must also bear the transition of our best athletes hope between the senior national and international scene.
