Coach & Athlete Conference Success – Save the Date for 2018

Cycling BC successfully hosted the first annual Coach and Athlete Conference at Fortius Sport and Health on February 5th, 2017.  Throughout the day, 55 coaches and 15 high-performance athletes joined six world-class speakers to gain insight from the world of elite sport development. Topics included sports physiology, psychology, aerodynamics, concussion, strength and conditioning, and annual training plan development.

I feel very privileged to be a part of the first annual cbc conference and it was an honor to have such wonderful speakers. Fortius Sport and Health provided a fantastic backdrop for our event and I look forward to building this event in the future. Bringing like-minded professionals and passionate coaches together is an important part of our coach development strategy.

Thank you to all of the participants and speakers.  See you in 2018! – Richard Wooles

Cycling BC is now happy to announce the dates for our 2nd annual conference, planned for January 27 and/or 28th, 2018. Topics currently planned include nutrition, recovery, psychology, physiology and strength for cyclists.
