OUR MISSION
Our mission at the Triathlete Factory Academy is to provide a fun, safe and supportive environment for children to develop their skills in triathlon. We aim to inspire a lifelong love of sport and physical activity, while promoting values such as teamwork, perseverance, and respect for others.
What does it involve?
Triathlon involves swimming, cycling, running and the 4th discipline - transition (how to move quickly from one discipline to another - against the clock!). They will be learning running technique and how to ride a bike safely and quickly, including how to use gears correctly, mounting and dismounting at speed. In the pool, we will help you improve your child's technique to make them a more proficient swimmer.
Benefits of Triathlon for kids
In the world of sports, the triathlon is the ultimate of all competitions. There are adults who spend many years preparing and training to reach their goal of simply completing a triathlon, much less winning. The word “Triathlon” means “three sports” in the Greek language, and millions have given their all to this competition for generations. Generally, the three sports that make up a triathlon include running, cycling and swimming. Competitors race for the fastest time, as well as smooth transitions between the different events. Completing a course takes great skill and determination. Though this is an advanced competition. There are many benefits to competing in this type of competition that can also be valuable to athletic kids.
