Welcome to the Australian Schools Cycling Cup, the "Tour de France" for schools.
The ASCC is an opportunity for your school to compete in a professionally conducted, multi-discipline cycling event.

Students can enter as many or as few events as they want, however, the more students in your team and the more events they enter will assist your school to collect the overall Peter Bartels Perpetual Trophy.

The ASCC will be conducted over two-days of competition on Wednesday, April 1 and Thursday April 2, 2009. The hub of the ASCC will be Dookie - a small town 25km east of Shepparton. All events will be conducted in Dookie and on Wednesday evening there will be a "Come and Try" Track and BMX session at the Shepparton Velodrome, with five-time Olympian and former World Champion, Shane Kelly.

There will be Junior and Senior divisions for males and females. Junior divisions are students in years 7, 8 & 9. Senior division is for students in years 10, 11 & 12.

There is no minimum or maximum number of competitors that your school can enter, however, you must enter through your school (no mixing schools please!).
Each competitor will be asked to select the disciplines of racing that they would like to contest (ie, Individual Time Trial, Road Race, MTB Cross Country) - it is not a requirement that you do every discipline, but you can choose to do as many as you like*.

Your school will be awarded points across each discipline to arrive at the Champion Male and Female schools (see rules for more information). The Champion schools will be awarded the Peter Bartels Perpetual Trophy.

There are some great, low cost accommodation options in the area to assist your school. Please chose our Accommodation in Shepparton link on the side bar to access details about these.

The competition is sanctioned by Cycling Australia and will be officiated by qualified cycling officials.

*The event organisers have worked hard to ensure the event scheduling does not clash, however, in some instances, events may clash - please see the event schedule for more information.
