Our performance team is aimed at athletes who are striving for the pinnacle of triathlon. Most athletes in this part of the team will be racing in the pro/elite categories at all local and national series races and will also compete internationally during our winter season. This level of training is not available to junior athletes. Performance Team members are expected to be fully committed to our program and will be training approximately 12 times a week.
We have a limit of 25 athletes in the Performance Team and we are currently full. This section of the coaching program is by invitation only.
Training times on application only, please contact
Coach
Gathercole.
Cost: Tridents Members - $150 for the 1st month then $110 per month after that. Non Tridents members are not accepted into this programme.
You must have a TA/TACT membership and you must be a current member of Tridents Triathlon Club Inc to train in the performance team.
| Our competition team is designed for athletes who
are interested in training to be competitive in the local and national racing
series. The level of commitment reflects what is required to be a competitive
age group triathlete. We currently have age group athletes training for the
Hawaii Ironman, ITU World Championships and the up coming
national summer series.
