Cycling Canada has released the list of teams that have taken out a domestic licence for 2022, one step below the UCI sanction. A total of ten teams have registered with Cycling Canada for this year - five returning and five new.

Trade Teams affiliated with Cycling Canada receive several benefits, including free technical space at Canadian Championship and Canada Cup events, priority invitations to events on the international and national calendar, access to special rates and more.

Returning to the roster this year will be TRA/Mandevco (Road), formally called Digital Commerce Bank, Project Dialed In (MTB), TaG Cycling Racing Team (Road, Track & Cyclo-cross), Team Hamilton (Road & MTB) and Veloselect-Silber Elite Cycling Team (Road). Joining the existing lineup will be Emily Batty and Adam Morka's new Canyon Devo Racing Team (MTB), Red Truck Racing (Road, Track & Cyclo-cross), Stimulus Orbea (MTB & Cyclo-cross), Équipe Siboire (Cyclo-cross) and SPS Athlete Development (Road & Cyclo-cross).

Some of the teams will include well-established veterans, such as road cyclists Edward Walsh and Gillian Ellsay, as well as several professional mountain bikers, while various promising development athletes will also be given the opportunity to showcase their skills. Junior Cyclo-cross Pan American champion Ava Holmgren will be making her debut with Team Stimulus/Orbea, as will her twin sister Isabella Holmgren and U17 mountain bike national champions Ian Ackert and Marin Lowe, while National Team track cyclist Sarah Van Dam will be racing on the Red Truck Racing squad.

"The new additions to our Canadian Trade Teams roster is really exciting, not only for the athletes but the sport itself and really shows the depth of Canadian cycling," said Jen Milligan, Community and Grassroots Manager at Cycling Canada. "Doubling the number of teams affiliated with the organization will greatly benefit athletes and the sport with more opportunities for cyclists to develop, both in Canada and internationally."
