Our Story

What began in 2019 as a small mountain bike team for students at Pines Charter High School has grown into one of Broward County’s premier NICA composite teams. As interest and ridership expanded, so did our vision.

By 2026, we officially rebranded as Panther Composite to better reflect the diverse student-athletes joining us from schools all across Broward County, not just Pembroke Pines. This change removed assumed recruitment limitations and helped create a more inclusive and competitive environment for youth riders in the region.
