Provincial Trade Team

Trade Teams are privately owned entities with a select membership focused on racing and competition. Members of trade teams often receive coaching, equipment support, and team management services. Trade Teams typically organize training activities or sanction races either for their own members, members of other clubs, teams, or UCI/CCA licence holders. Trade Team athletes must hold a UCI Race Licence.
