Coaching
The Club runs regular coaching sessions most Saturdays for riders aged 4 and over, of all abilities.
We have a Club Development Pathway to take riders from their first session, to potential Olympic athletes, and everything in between. New riders will complete the “Intro to BMX” programme prior to joining the main club sessions.
Once they’ve completed the intro to BMX programme, they move into the main sessions:
• Fundamentals
• Core
• Advanced
• Expert
For full details on times and prices, please see our Coaching Development Structure.
Sessions are led by the club’s British Cycling Level 2 BMX qualified coaching team.
Lead coaches Jools and Gav have been running Saturday training sessions at Braintree over a decade and are now supported by BMX superstar, Josh Butson.
All participants must wear the required safety gear:
• Full face helmet
• Long sleeve top
• Trousers
• Gloves
• Suitable trainers
Fees
Main Sessions – £8
Intro to BMX – £10 (includes bike hire)
Bike hire – £5
The Club have bikes, helmets and gloves available for hire on a first come, first served basis.
Please ensure your bikes are in good working order with chains tight and brakes working. Some tools are available for riders to undertake minor adjustments or repairs but please ensure your bikes are ready for the start of your coaching session.

PLEASE NOTE: riders must be club members to take part in the main session.
