Experience Fayetteville in Arkansas is hosting the UCI Cyclocross World Championships on January 28-30, 2022. As part of the world championships the organisation is also offering financial support to American female athletes on the Team USA roster.
“It’s exceptionally rare to compete for a rainbow jersey on this side of the Atlantic,” said Brendan Quirk, President and CEO of USA Cycling.
“We’re appreciative of the generous support by Experience Fayetteville to provide maximum opportunity for women on the US National Team to participate at the upcoming World Championships.”
USA Cycling recently announced a sizeable 38-athlete roster heading to the 2022 UCI Walmart Cyclocross World Championships in Fayetteville, AR.
‘With an unprecedented number of athletes and staff on the roster, USA Cycling and the USA Cycling Foundation’s MudFund were elated that Experience Fayetteville offered to sponsor the women’s team.’
Molly Rawn, CEO of the local organizing committee at Experience Fayetteville, said “Experience Fayetteville is honoured to host the Cyclocross World Championships on US soil, and we are committed to creating more accessibility for women in sport.
“As part of that commitment, we’re proud to make this contribution to USA Cycling’s women’s roster.”
USA Cycling’s Cyclocross Director, Jesse Anthony, added “These sponsorship dollars will eliminate any out-of-pocket expenses for the Team USA women once on the ground in Fayetteville, and we are extremely grateful to Molly and her team for their generous support of our female athletes.”
