TRYstars is an introduction into the sport of triathlon in the 7-11 year range which has a focus on fun & enjoyment, while encouraging kids to be with friends and make new friends.
TRYstars enables kids to develop skills, ability and fitness in a non-competitive environment.
It’s a Triathlon Australia national program managed on a state by state basis, to encourage healthy and active participation in the sport. TRYstars plays an integral role as the first step of the participation pathway for all juniors.
