How Can You Help

Baltimore Youth Cycling is a 100% run volunteer organization committed to promoting youth cycling in Maryland. We are in constant need of coach volunteers, parent volunteers, ride leaders, community partners, sponsors, and donations . . . to name a few.

To join the team as a volunteer with BYC, please click here: https://bycycling.squadfusion.com/reg/olOYpyCe and our volunteer coordinator will be in touch with next steps.

In order to protect the kids on the team, all volunteers who will have any contact with our minor athletes are required to complete SafeSport training. Coaches will also need to undergo a background check before participating in any BYC activities. If you have any questions on polices for coaches or volunteers please contact Mike Marinaro our president or Mita Vogel our vice president.
