The 3 A’s of GSMBC:
Affordability | Accessibility | Awesomeness
At the Global Syndicate of Mountain Bike Coaches (GSMBC), we’re not just shaping the future of mountain bike coach education — we’re redefining it. Our mission is simple: make coach education more accessible, more affordable, and flat-out more awesome than ever before.
Welcome to the next generation of MTB coaching and certification.
Affordability: Coaching Education That Doesn’t Break the Bank
Too often, the cost of certification has been a barrier for talented and passionate coaches. At GSMBC, we’re breaking down those barriers so you can focus on what really matters — becoming the best coach you can be.
Here’s how we’re keeping costs low and value high:
✔️ Reduced course fees
✔️ No costly mandatory memberships
✔️ Retest options through Sport Sense, with reduced barriers and fees for completing certifications
Coaching education should be an investment in your growth — not a financial burden.
