The Future Champions Camps provide opportunities for motivated young cyclists to gain knowledge and inspiration from qualified coaches, elite cyclists, and their peers.
Previous Future Champion Camps and the Hayman Classic have played a pivotal role in nurturing and retaining new talent. The first Future Champions Camp was held in Rossland, BC, in August 2010. The 2022 Camp will expand on the original goal – combining racing, group rides, and lectures in a fun, relaxed setting.
