Goos Day All...We would like to make all promoters in NC and SC that the CCA Camera equipment is free of charge to promoters. Don't get put in a position where you think you have to pay someone for use of this equipment. The camera equipment is coordinated for with the assigned chief ref "CR" for your event.

Dear Local Associations (LAs),

These races are recommended for the less experienced and younger racers.  Some race meets do not offer races for juniors, while some offer open races, meaning all categories may.... click for more!

Injuries and Accidents..It Does Happen.

During this and all cycling seasons, it is not a matter of if an accident will happen but when. It also does not matter how experienced you are or the level of event you are participating in. You should know however, that the promoters and officials are there to assist and support you in the event of an accident (no matter how miner). With that thought in mind we ask some things of you as a participant. First, make sure your Standard Athletes Waiver (both for competitive and non-competitive events) are clearly and completely filled out and signed. In the event of an accident, this is one of the most important forms for gathering necessary personal information. Second, is the preparing of the First Report of Occurrence form. This form is prepared by the event staff, a senior official, or a combination of both. Once completed both the original standard athlete waiver and the report of first occurrence forms are sent to USA Cycling with post event packet. That information is used to assist the payment of insurance claims made by the rider.

If you have any kind of accident, you are highly encouraged to go to the chief referee, chief judge or any offical and let them know. Even if you do not plan on going to the hospital to get checked out and are just planning on going home or elsewhere, please go see the chief referee. It is in everyone's best interest and a courtesy to do this. It is very difficult trying to play catch up after the event if no one knew about the accident.
