BIKE LEAGUE FOR KIDS! – Iowa BMX League is hosting a Free “Give it a Try” Open House event on Wednesday, April 24; ahead of the Monday, April 29 beginners-only League season.
Sign up for the free event and/or the five-session League at:
The event runs 5:30PM-7PM
Iowa BMX League is a Beginners-only program of instruction and racing. Our instructors bring boys & girls 4-15 years of age, gradually, through the fundamentals of riding, with weekly drills, which they then apply in a race of four starts, four finishes, per session.
BMX Racing is the fastest growing Family sport in America, and there’s a reason for that. It’s an individual sport that is great for boys and girls of all shapes, sizes and abilities.
“Competitive” kids, “not into team sports” kids, “can’t pry them off the phone” kids, and all the rest. BMX Racing is like a real-life video game, where each track is like a unique “world” in the game.
The BMX track is a great family atmosphere, where parents and siblings can cheer-on their rider as part of the “pit crew,” or jump on a bike and join the fun (parents of enrolled riders join their own age-appropriate class for $40 off the Youth tuition).
Tuition includes five sessions of instruction and racing, a league jersey, personalized number plate, loaner bike and/or helmet (if needed), season-end award and pizza party.
Use the link above to learn more, and/or sign up for the free “Give-it-a-try” Open House, or the April 29 Spring 2024 Season.
Note: You do not need to attend the Open House to enroll in the league, so secure your spot now at iowabmxleague.com
