Triathlon Junior Training Spring Camp (Set/Oct School Holidays)
The camp is designed for advanced and intermediate juniors. For example, in the bike sessions, the junior must be able to ride a bike on a public road independently and safely. In the swim sessions, the junior must be able to swim multiple laps in a 50m pool. For run sessions, the junior must be able to run longer distances.
Participants can choose to join the full camp (one week) or just individual sessions of the camp as they wish.
Sub-juniors and beginner triathletes can join the track run sessions, lecture sessions and some pool sessions if parents are willing to assist the activity.
Training: Each day the camp starts at 9am and finishes at 5pm. The activity sessions run for 2 hours and the lecture sessions run for 1 hour. The sessions need to be confirmed by the participants in advance. Parents are welcome to join in or help to supervise.
Fees: Click Here
