Certification

 Subject: NATIONAL COACHING CERTIFICATION LEVEL 1 
Attention all BMXer's; Great news!!!!! 

At the upcoming Alberta BMX coaching clinic in St. Albert, April 7-8th 
all coaches/members are invited to attend the National Coaching 
Certification program level #1 at the Spruce Grove Arena. 

In the theory component, coaches will review coach manuels to learn 
essential principles of coaching; planning, sport safety, skill analysis and 
development, mental preparation, and leadership. This course is 13.5 hours 
in length and recieving credit for this component involves taking and 
sussessful completion of the coach workbooks. 

I require your coaches/members name as soon as possible, as the only way 
to enroll is for payment to be up front, and I don't want any club to miss 
out. The cost is 69.55/person, and arrangements can be made to cover the 
cost till the course date, so that you can be registered.

Edmonton BMX received $35,151.00 from the city to improve our facility. We will be resurfacing our track, paving the start hill, and having some work done to the gate. A patio and concession with tables and chairs is being added to the clubhouse. We will have stands for our spectators this year as well as road signs to help advertise the track and give direction. We will also be putting in trees and adding proper drainage for those rainy days.
Edmonton BMX has a new logo! We will be purchasing a flag with the new logo as well as decals.
Edmonton BMX is hosting the Provincials! Temporarily scheduled for August 4 and 5. This might change due to conflicts with the World Track and Field Championships. Keep tuned for further notice.

We need Volunteers!  

Hosting the Provincials and preparing for the weekend will not be possible without a group effort. Let's show the other tracks in our province what the City of Champions is all about. Anyone interested please email us.
