Junior Race Classes

Image

The Junior Races Classes have been carefully developed to allow each rider to ride in a class that is suitable for his/her age, riding ability and experience.

Junior Classes for the season are as follows:

The Beginners Class
The Beginners Class is primarily aimed at encouraging young riders between the ages of 4 to 9 years of age to compete in Motocross and improve their riding ability.
This class is for 50cc Automatic bikes with a Maximum 12” Front Wheel and a Maximum 10” Rear wheel.

50cc Quad Class
The quad class is designed to give the youngest of riders, age 4 to 7years old, the opportunity to master the fundamentals of racing with a view to progressing into the two-wheeled format. The SUZUKI LT 50 Quadrunner and ARIA Junior Star 50, will be the ONLY Quad Motorcycles allowed to compete in the Quad Class

Cadet Class
This class is for 50cc Automatic bikes with a Maximum 12” Front Wheel and a Maximum 10” Rear wheel. Riders are aged between 4 and 7 Years

Juniors Class
This class is for 50cc Automatic bikes with a Maximum 12” Front Wheel and a Maximum 10” Rear wheel. Riders are aged between 7 and 9 Years

Just for Mums and Dads...

There will probably come a time when a child, boy and girl, will announce that they'd like to riding a motorbike or a quad bike on a motocross track in competitions.
Many thoughts go through a parents head at a moment like that, including worries about safety, cost, and whether or not this is a suitable sport for ones so young.

At DMX, we understand all your concerns. All of our parents asked themselves the same questions and faced the same difficult decisions in whether or not to allow their children to take Motocross up as a hobby.
Safety is our primary concern and paramount in all that we do. From mandatory riding safety gear to our carefully designed Junior race track and specialised junior training.

We don't push our junior riders to be winners. We encourage them to use their heads, refine their skills, and live to race another day. We make sure to instill the philosophy that winning is not everything. Motocross, upfront and foremost has to be fun for our riders.

Make no mistake, Motocross does take a commitment of time and easily evolves into a lifestyle.
Having MX as a sport means that you spend quality time as a family and the children learn skills that will stand them in good stead down the road.

Our Juniors also become aware that the fun things in life can cost a lot of money, and that racing is a privilege to be earned.
They make friendships that will last beyond Junior School and meet people who would have otherwise remained strangers.

There are safer sports, there are saner sports, and there are certainly cheaper sports.... but there's not a sport that they themselves as well as the whole family, will enjoy more than this one!
