It’s FREE to attend the conference and there is a workshop for everyone involved with Go-Ride clubs:

Workshop 1: Coaches
The rider journey does not stop at 16,and thousands of our Go-Ride club members are due to graduate from youth categories within the next Olympic cycle. We would like to invite coaches to find out how the Go-Ride programme can support riders and clubs in that crucial stage of a rider’s development.

Workshop 2: Go-Ride Volunteers
With a similar theme to Workshop 1, this session will provide delegates with an opportunity to share examples of club development, with a focus on volunteer opportunities, provision of regular activities, funding sources and success stories from award-winning clubs.

Workshop 3: New Young Volunteers
For young people aged 14-18 wishing to join the Cycling Award for Young Volunteers (CAYV) programme, this workshop will cover the basic CAYV and Racemakers modules to broaden knowledge of volunteering roles in cycle sport and enthuse them to get involved.

Workshop 4: Current Young Volunteers
