Training Team
The Tri 4 Schools Training Team is a fitness program
that prepares students to participate in a Tri 4
Schools Kids Triathlon.
Why Training Teams?
Supportive Training
Participants set their own personal goals, and then support each other by training and working together as a team. Each team is coached by staff from the host site that
Holistic Approach
At Tri 4 Schools, we want to grow happy, healthy, and confident kids. In addition
to physical training, the program incorporates social, emotional, and mindfulness topics.
Fun & Engaging
Triathlons are a blast, and training for them is even more fun. The Training Team program is designed to be fun and engaging so your kids stay excited about their upcoming race.
Training Dates & Scheduling
Each Training Team prepares for one of three upcoming triathlons. Each site schedules specific training days and times that work best for them, so practice schedules are flexible. Here’s what you can expect:
- Practices begin 10 weeks before the event
- 13 to 16 total practices
- Three bike training days
- Three swimming lessons
- Celebration day at the end of the program
