Hello,
My name is Lloyd Davies and I am the new Treasurer of the Northern California/Nevada Cycling Association. I have been trying to understand the sources of our revenue which has lead me to look closely at the end of day reports for a number of races during 2023. I noticed that in a number (perhaps all) of races they number of juniors in the race is misreported which has lead to promotors paying less to the NCNCA for races than they should have. I have three examples which are detailed below. Perhaps you could look into this and confirm my findings.
As a separate matter, in 2024 the NCNCA will be charging promoters the same rate for junior racers as they do for adult racers so there is no need to show a deduction for junior racers on your end of day report as you do currently. Somewhat related to this Chief Referees have been incorrectly reporting to USAC the number of unique racers to USA Cycling and have been excluding junior racers from the number of unique racers. The happens in some but not all cases and seems to vary by race and Chief Referee. I will be working with the head of the Chief Referees in our region to correct this situation but eliminating the deduction for juniors on your End of Day Report will go a long way to fixing this problem as well.
Please reach out to me to discuss if you have any questions.
