What are your kids doing this summer?
WORCA offers mountain bike camps through the summer months for youth ages 6 - 15! Our camps are not just about biking and developing solid bike skills - although that is a focus! We are about cultivating positive mountain bike experiences, fostering a love for adventure, recreating responsibly and creating a sense of community.

Program entry level requirements
WORCA programs are designed for a range of ability levels. Basic mountain biking skills are required as coaches will be taking youth ‘off-road’ and onto trail surfaces containing rocks, roots, loose gravel and dirt, and other obstacles. Your child should have experience using hand brakes and gears. If you are concerned whether or not your child is ready for one of our programs, please email your query to camps@worca.com.
