Local Earned Award Program (LEAP) - The first step to local program
development. The Local Earned Award Program is open to all riders at your
track. Rookies, Novices, Experts, Girls and Cruisers will all receive LEAP
points by proficiency each time they race your track. Each NBL track must
run a minimum of 15 NBL-sanctioned local races in one season to be eligible
to participate in the LEAP Program. A rider who races at least eight (8)
local point class races at a track will be eligible for awards based on the
criteria below. LEAP points will be listed by track on the NBL website.
The NBL is the only BMX-sanctioning body to promote and
provide a track series for local tracks at no cost to the track.

LEAP Plate: The LEAP Plate is a number plate that can be earned just by racing at a local track. The NBL awards LEAP Plates to the top 10 Rookies, Novices and Experts, and to the top 5 Girls and Cruisers at each track. LEAP Plates are based on a total point series beginning January 1 and ending December 31 of each year. Riders will be awarded based on their proficiency as of Dec. 31 each year. A rider may earn a LEAP Plate from more than one track. This plate and number can only be used at the track where it is earned. |

LEAP Hoodie: The LEAP Hooded Sweatshirt can be earned just by racing at a local track. The NBL awards a hooded sweatshirt (Hoodie) to the top points rider in Rookie, Novice, Expert, Girl and Cruiser. Hoodies are awarded based on a total points series beginning January 1 and ending December 31 of each year. Riders will be awarded based on their proficiency as of Dec. 31 of each year. A rider may earn a hooded sweatshirt from more than one track. |
How the LEAP Program Can Help Your Track: The LEAP Program will, without a doubt, be one of the strongest tools for NBL tracks to promote and increase local ridership. The LEAP Program was created to give riders something to race for without having to travel, and increase participation at your track. With the incentive of great awards, like number plates and hoodies, the program almost promotes itself. |
