Home - NICA AUS

Hey Australia,

We get kids on bikes.

We are outside going places.

We are stoking a life-long passion for riding.

We are NICA!

Everyone is welcome. There are no cuts. There is no bench warming.

We ride together.

About NICA

We get kids on bikes. We’re outside, exploring new places. We’re igniting a lifelong passion for riding. Founded in 2009, the National Interscholastic Cycling Association (NICA) develops inter-school mountain biking programs for student-athletes across the United States.

NICA’s mission is to build strong minds, bodies, character, and communities through cycling, and our vision is for every youth to be part of a thriving cycling community. We strive to cultivate lifelong cyclists.

We have no trials, and no one sits on the bench. Everyone rides.

And now we’re coming to Australia!

NICA Values

NICA’s core values of fun, inclusivity, equity, respect, and community are evident throughout our national organisation and Leagues, and are what we’re bringing to Australia. NICA recognises the importance of participation in NICA League events for all student-athletes, free from discrimination based on race, religion, or gender identity.

Fun: NICA inspires friendship, joy, and adventure.

Inclusivity: NICA believes everyone should be able to participate and feel welcomed, respected, and supported.

Equity: NICA is committed to fair treatment, equal access, and eliminating barriers to encourage participation for all.

Respect: NICA expects consideration for all others, oneself, and the outdoors.

Community: NICA unites diverse people and communities by creating fun and welcoming experiences.
