Coaches

We are proud of our staff for their commitment to teaching skills that enhances the lives of young cyclists!

CJC averages 18 – 20 coaches each season. We emphasize professional development, provide in-house training and set a high standard for employment. CJC has pathways for teens to volunteer with our summer camps and apply for internships that prepare them for employment.

Thank you, Coaches!
We cannot do this without your dedication and expertise!

If you have a great experience with our coaches, please spread the word to other families.
