Training
Our training schedule has been set so TRYstars get your gear ready, the start is not far off!
Our TRYstar club is lucky enough to have the experience of 3 great coaches/athletes to support our youngsters and teach them the ins and outs of Triathlon. Training will commence on Tuesday nights from 4.30 – 5.30pm at Tompkins Park in Applecross. We meet at the park bench in front of 43-45 Dunkley Avenue, Applecross. It is important that you check the event calendar regularly as this is where you will find what gear you need each week.
North Coast Triathlon Club has put together a great set of training guidelines for those athletes aged 10+ if your child falls into this category please take a moment to read the following information. Guidelines.
Registration for the TRYstars program will be on the initial training date of October 18th so please come early. I will be there from 4pm. This season we will also be strictly enforcing the TWA membership requirements and age limits. The youngest participants must be 7 years old by December 31st 2011 or they are not eligible to participate. On October 18th you will NOT be able to register your child for TRYStars unless you HAVE a printed receipt of their TWA affiliation or their current membership card so make sure you don’t forget it. NO EXCEPTIONS! This is a safety and insurance issue/policy. To register for your TWA membership please use the following link http://triwa.org.au/ and click on the Join Now button on the left hand column.
Parents in addition to the TWA affiliation receipt a payment of $90/participant for the 2011/2012 training season is to accompany registration. These are the training fees for Tuesday nights. Payment can be in the form of cash (exact tender only) or cheque made to Eclipse Fitness or Stuart Durham. THERE WILL BE NOT EXCEPTIONS TO THIS SO PLEASE COME PREPARED.
Parents: please feel free to watch the training sessions and socialize with other parents on Tuesdays. Your involvement in training sessions in not necessary but we do need to have parental involvement to make our races safe and successful. This year we will have a parental sign up sheet at the Tuesday night sessions where you can pick which races/jobs you would like to volunteer at. We are hoping that each family will volunteer at 2 events over the season to help us make things run smoothly.
If you would like to get other information please contact the Fremantle Triathlon Club TRYstar Coordinator or send an email to the club.
We look forward to seeing you there!
