Registering for the West Madison Area mountain bike teams involves a few steps. Here they are, all in one place. 

This team is open to all riders, regardless of financial situation. If you need assistance to help cover the costs, you are welcome to apply for NICA Financial Assistance (both national and WI league) before registering for the season, and you can also complete our team’s Google financial assistance form.

Total 2026 season fee per student-athlete: $510 ($55 NICA Membership Fee + $5 NICA Tech Fee + $300 WI League Fee + $150 608MTB team fee). Team fees cover fun activities like ice cream rides and pizza rides, and the end of season banquet and team swag. Team fees do not include race jerseys, which are ordered separately. Sorry, team fees are not refundable.

New Riders! Interested riders must submit a Google form with their school information. After that, we match them to the correct team, add them to the team roster on PitZone, and send them an email invitation to set up an account in PitZone. We will notify you if your athlete is on our waiting list.

Calling all interested adults! We need coaches! You don’t need to be an amazing mountain biker – just have an interest in having fun riding bikes with athletes and other coaches. All levels of experience welcome (we provide training before the season begins, so you will know what to do). Please complete this form to find out more about coaching. We also need adult help with all kinds of other team activities. Please fill out this form to volunteer in other ways.

Registration Part 1: Register with NICA. Returning athletes will be automatically re-invited to PitZone. New riders who have submitted the Google interest form in Step 1 will receive an invitation to PitZone and a welcome email from the team director. Wait to proceed to the following steps until you have been invited to PitZone and received your welcome email. Complete NICA registration and pay annual Wisconsin League and NICA fees in PitZone. 

Registration Part 2: Register in TeamSnap and pay team fees. You will be invited to join TeamSnap. In TeamSnap, you will complete your registration and pay your team fee by credit card.

Team communication: All team communication will happen via TeamSnap, so be sure that you have downloaded the TeamSnap app on your phone and added your complete contact details, including your phone number. We will often need to send last-minute information, due to weather, via TeamSnap.
