NICA GRiT
Currently, girls represent 24% of NICA’s overall national student-athlete participation. NICA GRiT (Girls Riding Together) seeks to increase that number significantly over the next five years. The GRiT Program is NICA’s effort to recruit and retain more girls and female coaches in NICA programs.
Activities are focused on increasing girls’ awareness of NICA programs by offering girls-only social and riding opportunities for girls, moms, friends, siblings, and female coaches. GRiT Camps and GRiT student-athlete Ambassador programs are also available in some leagues!
GRiT recognizes the need to get more girls on bikes. GRiT aims to empower female student-athletes to make their mark, on or off the bike.
The Saturday of every race weekend there is a GRiT ride encouraging all girls, moms, friends, siblings, and female coaches to ride with other girls.
