Triathlon Club

Broxtowe Sport, Triathlon England and Bramcote Leisure Centre are launching a Triathlon Club for juniors. The club is for those young people who would like to try something new.

The sessions are to be coached by Dean Hughes who is England Triathlons coach of the year. Children attending the club will be involved in swimming, cycling and running coaching and will also get the chance to use the leisure centres Youth Gym as part of the club.

What do I need?

Some swimming and cycling ability is important. We do not expect everyone to be strong swimmers and cyclists. The club will provide coaching in these areas so everyone will improve.

Please bring swimming kit, sports/running trainers and spare sports clothing to each session. If you have a bike helmet please bring this also. Helmets and bikes are provided for as long as needed.

Tasters

Taster sessions are to be held at Bramcote Leisure Centre during the school summer holidays. Taster session days are:

• Tuesday 29 July
• Tuesday 5 August
• Tuesday 19 August

All taster sessions are 8.45am – 12noon and cost £3.80 each. To book a place please contact Bramcote Leisure Centre.  Contact details can be found on the right hand side under related contacts.

The Club

After the summer holidays regular coaching sessions will begin on Saturdays at Bramcote Leisure Centre. Equipment is provided but once into the swing of things participants will be welcome to bring their own bikes etc.

Competition

The club will be about practicing and being coached for Triathlon. The club will also be somewhere to meet new people and to make friends. Competition opportunities will given to participants but no one will be pushed into competing until they decide for themselves that they want to do so.
