Harvard University Cycling Association
Funding
The Harvard University Cycling Association (HUCA) is both
a club sport and a racing team. Our club introduces students to
the sport of cycling and allows new and advanced riders to work
on skills and develop technique for both racing and recreational
riding. In the springtime, our team competes in the 9-week Eastern
Collegiate Cycling Conference racing season.
Sustained by the continuing generosity of our Supporters, HUCA has
grown from 16 racers in 2000 to over 125 students in 2005. In 2002,
the team won the ECCC and Ivy League Championships, came in 9th
a the National Championships and was recognized by USA Cycling with
a USACDF Center of Excellence award as one of the best-run collegiate
clubs in the country.
We could not have accomplished these goals without the help of our
Supporters. Harvard University does not support HUCA as a NCAA sport.
The vast majority of our budget comes from donations and corporate
support. Each race weekend, HUCA covers race fees, transportation,
and hotels for our student members. We would like to be able to
cover meals as well and find other ways to reduce the financial
barriers to entry into our sport.This year,
with the help of our Supporters, the team has been able to
purchase much needed equipment to facilitate the continuation of
training throughout the cold winter months.
